Does filing ITR with New Regime lock me to use New Regime for next financial year and can't use Old Regime in following years

I plan to buy a flat on loan in financial year 24-25.

If I file my ITR of 23-24 financial year, I'm getting less taxed if I use New Regime. But if I file my ITR with New Regime, would I be locked in to use New Regime for next financial years going forward ?

As I wish to buy a flat on loan, I would prefer old regime going forward.
