This disclosure relates generally to a method and system for muting of classified information from an audio using a fuzzy approach. The method comprises converting the received audio signal into text using a speech recognition engine to identify a plurality of classified words from the text to obtain a first set of parameters. Further, a plurality of subwords associated with each classified word are identified to obtain a second set of parameters associated with each subword of corresponding classified word. A relative score is computed for each subword associated with the classified word based on a plurality of similar pairs for the corresponding classified word. A fuzzy muting function is generated using the first set of parameters, the second set of parameters and the relative score associated with each subword. The plurality of subwords associated with each classified word is muted in accordance with the generated fuzzy muting function.
