Mumbai International Transit

Hi
I am trying to get a definitive answer regarding the International transit procedure in Mumbai. To date nearly every answer is different. I arrive from London with BA and depart three hours later to Colombo with Sri Lankan. Unfortunately these are separate tickets and our bags are not checked through to CMB.
In theory we have to clear customs to collect our luggage before checking in for the Colombo flight. Do we need a visa for this? Some say yes and some say no.
There is nothing on the Mumbai airport website for Int'l - Int'l transit that is actually useful.
I do not want to spend £100+ for a visa to spend three hours in an airport if I don't have to.
