Lucene certainly supports multiple sort criteria, see IndexSearcher.search, any one that takes a Sort object. The Sort object can contain a list of fields where any ties in the first N field(s) are decided by looking at field N+1.
But, Ganesh, be a little careful about resolving by internal Lucene doc ID. Not only do they change during merges, but some policies re-order them. I'd put in an ordinal number that was the insertion order.
