select distinct on (s.s_registration) *... order by u.ud_id desc

or

select * from stock_details s         left join (select * from used_diary where (ud_id,
ud_registration) = (select max(ud_id), ud_registration from used_diary
group by ud_registration)) x         on s.s_registration = x.ud_registration;
