Meanwhile at the stage of final hearing of Misc.Appeal, appellant/original defendant stating that the old survey no.202 of the suit property is not owned by respondent/original plaintiff.Appellant taking this type of stand because plaintiff pleaded this no. in his plaint.But actually position is that,plaintiff is owner of Survey No.201,due to typographical mistake survey no. 202 has been typed.Appellant taking disadvantage of this mistake.
Now plaintiff wants to amend his plaint but the R/P is in appellate court and amendment is plaint is essential.

The Type Mistake - or - inadvertence mistakes can not take away the rights of the party - when Your Title Deed is supporting the Sy No;- 201 in stead of Sy no;- 202 - you are absolutely entitled to correct the type mistake by amendment - Pending CMA also you can file the Petition for amendment u/o 6 Rule 17 CPC - let the petition be pending before lower court and file a memo in the Appellate court that you have filed a Petition for amendment and file copy of the petition and also request the appellate court to call for a report on the application pending for amendment before the lower court. Request the appellate court to adjourn the CMA till the amendment petition is disposed in the lower court.

In all cases boundaries will prevail - Boundaries can identify the Property - wrong Survey Number may not take away the rights of the party !

Since the record is before the appellate court you can file amendment application before appellate court.

yes it very important that you must move application for amendment in lower court , many friends do the mistake of doing amendment at appeallate stage which even by mistake is allowed will be fatal in further revision or appeal.

Regarding amendment in pleading prior to judgment is basic right since by amendment you want to inform the opponent your case for which the opponent will have opportunity to contest in trial.
