I thought this was a bug with the old code and assumed blockchain.info was in the right but strangely enough after migrating blockexplorer.com to Insight there is still a difference in the balance.

I can't speak for what blockchain.info is doing, but since the site is open source you can take a look yourself and figure out where the difference is coming from. This time I'm betting blockexplorer.com is right.

I think numbers like this happen because some block explorers take "change" sent back to the same address in to account as another "receive" whilst others don't?


So any option to get correct value for blockexplorer.com ?

It depends on what is "correct". As Newar said, if you count everything, you get one answer; if you count everything except change, you get another.

Some people might think change shouldn't count since it really wasn't sent to an address, it just remained there; others might say it should count.

One could look at the code and alter it, and verify that this is even the issue.
