charges are framed as per the allegations against a particular accused.

Once a charge is framed, the same can be altered by the court u/s 216 Cr.P.C at any stage before the judgment is pronounced.

a magistrate can alter, add or change the charge at any time before pronouncement of judgement. There is no bar.
