Limitations on Power - Corrections are generally confined to clerical, typographical, or arithmetical mistakes and cannot encompass substantive changes or corrections beyond these errors.

For example, corrections of omissions or errors in orders or decrees are permissible only if they are typographical or clerical in nature, as per Sections 152 and 152 C.P.C.
