[Dr. Ashok Dhamija]

Section 362 of the Criminal Procedure Code allows the court to modify its judgment or order for correcting the clerical or arithmetical errors. Try in the trial court under that section if it is important for your appeal:

“362. Court not to alter judgment.— Save as otherwise provided by this Code or by any other law for the time being in force, no Court, when it has signed its judgment or final order disposing of a case, shall alter or review the same except to correct a clerical or arithmetical error.”
