1)Mental disorder can become a ground for filing a divorce if the spouse suffers from incurable mental disorder and insanity and therefore it cannot be expected from the couple to stay together. You need to prove that the mental disorder is standing in the way of a happy married life and affecting your health and career.

2)Ofcouse you can purchase either on your name or your mothers name.

Yes. You can definitely go on to buy a flat in your or your mother's name as your wife would have no right in your self acquired property and also cannot claim any share in the same.

Hello

Your wife is suffering from a mental disorder and therefore you want to file a divorce case. In that case you can purchase a flat in your mother's name. Even if your wife was well then too you can do so.

Firslty, as you have mentioned that you have filed divorce petition due to the mental disorder of your wife.

Secondly, it seems that you are worry about her right in your self acquired property, that is why put up the above query.

Thirdly, I advice you to buy the house in your mother name, that may save you from any future trouble to you as well as to your mother.

This is my response to you:

1. It is advisable that you purchase the property in your family name;

2. Do not purchase or transfer in your name until divorce is finalised;

3. Try to obtain the divorce as early as possible by waving off the cooling-off period;

4. Consult a good family and criminal lawyer.

Divorce petition has nothing to do with purchasing of property yes since you are planning to go for divorce it's advisable to purchase property in your mom or dad's name so that she cannot stake claim on it later. File a petition under sec 13(1)(ia)&13(iii) of hindu marriage act

Filing a divorce case in the family court has nothing to do with the purchase of a property either on your name or your mother's name.

Your wife cannot claim any share in the proeprty as a right at least not during your lifetime.
