Filing a document when the orders are reserved in highcourt

I have filed a Writ petition in High Court for Cancellation of an illegally Registered Society.

Orders/Judgement are Reserved by the Honorable Judge. But my lawyer couldn't submit to the High Court an important Audit report of the society. We are worried that this may impact the Judgement/Orders.

Is there any way that we can submit the Audit report to the court before the Judgment is passed ? Or do I need to apply for review petition post the Judgement.

Please Suggest. Thanks.

Quick Summary

A petitioner in a High Court case, where judgment has been reserved, is concerned about submitting a vital audit report that their lawyer couldn't file earlier. They are seeking advice on whether it's possible to submit this report before the judge delivers the verdict, or if they must wait to file a review petition afterwards. The general understanding is that High Courts typically do not accept new evidence in writ petitions once arguments are concluded.

Judgement has been reserved means that the argument of both the counsels have been heard and now the judge will deliberate upon the matter and decide the merits of the arguments and the submissions of both the counsels and give the order on the date given for the same.
