amendment in writ

Udit (Querist) 11 August 2015 This query is : Resolved
Sir,
I filed a writ in the high court under article 227. The writ is related to the rent control act for determination of standard rent. In our petition in the trial court the period of expiry of lease was mentioned March, 1973 while the defendant in his w.s. mentioned it in March 2003. The trial court also held it correct that the lease was expired in 1973 but the trial court determined the rent to be payable since 2008. My question is that by mistake my lawyer mentioned in the writ that the lease expired in March 2003 and the defendant has also filed his counter in the high court. Can we now amend

Our writ by taking the fact that by mistake the period was taken as 2003 and even in the trial court we have mentioned it 1973 and the trial court has also taken that the lease has been expired in 1973. We filed our writ in April, 2015 and counter was received in August, 2015. Please tell me can the writ be amended and the high court would allow the amendment and if not what other remedy is available.
