Yes you can seek permission to.send notice to.her company address.and email and can proceed ahead with an exparte divorce if she does not contest.
My wife is living in abroad past 1 year and we are living separately past 5 years and we have a daughter of 7 years. She deserted me 5 years ago assuming I was having an affair and when I tried reconciling she told that I need to leave my old parents who are dependent to me. I said I cannot leave them as they need me. Since then she made no attempt to comeback. I tried multiple times to reconcile but always she said she wants me to leave the parents at that time she was living in Mumbai and I am from Bangalore. Now as she left my daughter and doesn't want to comeback to me I decided to file for divorce.. I contacted again and she said she is ready for mutual consent in email. However now she is unwilling to send me abroad address and threatening me with false allegations. Can I get divorce on ex-parte as I have her company address?

Dear Sir,
Yes, you can file a divorce case on the ground of wife refuses to live with in laws. Try to secure her address.
Refer the following Supreme Court judgement :
India grants divorce to man whose wife refused to live with in-laws
India’s supreme court has granted a divorce to a man on the grounds of “cruelty” after his wife refused to share a home with her in-laws, effectively ruling that a married woman must live with her husband’s family.
Justice Anil R Dave, one of the the most senior judges in India, said the wife’s desire to leave her in-laws’ home was inspired by “western thought” and violated traditional values of Indian Hindus.
“In normal circumstances, a wife is expected to be with the family of the husband after the marriage,” stated the supreme court ruling, which also dismissed the wife’s attempt to kill herself as a plot to “torture” her husband and his relatives.
There is no legal obligation for men to live with their parents, so the ruling still allows couples to live independently if men choose to set up a separate home. But the case had been seen as a test, pitting the rights of women against traditional Hindu values.
Activists said the ruling left millions of women who were in unhappy marriages or with abusive husbands even more vulnerable.
“If you look at the language the court has used, it’s very regressive,” said Tenzing Chusang, from the Women’s Rights Initiative, a lawyers’ collective. “If you make the grounds of divorce very lenient for men, it makes the woman very vulnerable.”
Divorce in India carries a huge stigma: there are few financial provisions for divorced women, and little legal support.
Chusang said: “In India there’s no such thing as shared matrimonial property or equal division of assets. All she gets if the husband divorces her, and that too after years of litigation, is a minimal maintenance payment. What can she do? She has to stay.”
The judge said the wife’s claims that her husband was having an affair were fabricated, and that her suicide attempt was a devious attempt to manipulate her husband’s family.
Mutual consent divorce is not possible without her consent and cooperation. It appears that she is not ready for a divorce much less with mutual consent.
You are advised to contest a case of divorce against her on the ground of desertion and mental cruelty. Make her a party through the Indian address of your in-laws.
You can make parents a party and ask them to furnish address in court.
You can send summon to office address if known to you.
If all possible efforts fail you can approach court for local paper publication of summons where the defendant expected to be residing.
All summon to foreign country should go through Indian Embassy to that country.
You can also take help of professional address tracker/summon server by paying their fees.
Unless summon is served court will not issue exparte order.
