A statement under section 313 of Cr. P. C. is not evidence nor the other party gets opportunity to cross-examine the accused. So, documents cannot be exhibited during the statement under section 313 of Cr. P. C.
If an accused wants to produce documents in his defence evidence, he can do so when the court grants him opportunity to lead his defence evidence.

The accused can mark his documents as exhibits u/s.313, Cr.P.C., no body question is because the proceedings u/s.313, Cr.P.C. is the matter between the court and accused
