Quick Answer
Review and revision are limited corrective remedies distinct from appeal. Review under Section 114 read with Order XLVII Rule 1 CPC is to the same court on three grounds: discovery of new and important evidence; mistake or error apparent on the face of the record; any other sufficient reason. Revision under Section 115 CPC is to the superior court on the limited ground that the subordinate court has exercised jurisdiction not vested, failed to exercise jurisdiction, or acted illegally with material irregularity. Revision is rarer than appeal; review is even more limited.
