Hello Gaurav,

You can file for mutual divorce at a place where you both have stayed together or at the maternal city of your wife or at the city where marriage was solemnized. In the mutual settlement you can decide what compensation/alimony/one time settlement money your wife expects or you want to give and then you can file divorce with mutual consent.

Best of Luck... stay blessed.

Pls suggest me how and where I should I move forward and what would be the complications in the same and about almuni compensation also which has to be given

You can file a divorce case either at the place of marriage or at the place where you both resided together lastly or the place where the wife is currently residing.

About the alimony, it will depend on the proofs she would prove before court and your denials.

They want divorce with mutual consent. It was a love marriage in Arya samaj mandir so there was no dowry involved.Wife has left house along with child two days back. She was mentally harrassing my brother. She does not have family.

Pls suggest what should we do in that case and how should process the same.

If you do not want to continue this marital relationship and if she is ready and willing to give mutual consent divorce you both can file a joint petition seeking dissolution of your marriage by a decree of divorce on the grounds of mutual consent.

1. Since your spouse is ready for mutual divorce you may file it where the marriage was solemnized or where you last resided together as a couple. It takes 6 months for the process to culminate from the date of filing of the petition if all the documents are in order, but this can also be shortened by the Supreme Court in exceptional cases.

2. In mutual divorce the spouses themselves decide the amount of alimony. A MOU would have to be executed between you and your spouse to record a settlement on all contentious issues such as division of assets, alimony, etc.
