You can file for divorce on expiry of one year of marriage on grounds of mental cruelty
2) wife refusing to stay with husband amounts to mental
3) rely upon messages exchanged with wife to return to her matrimonial house
4) if there is substantial differences in your incomes wife would be entitled to alimony
5) contested divorce proceedings take 5 years to be disposed of
See even if marriage us not registered it is valid.
Husband after one year of marriage has to file divorce on ground of cruelty. If the wife seek maintenance same has to be contested on ground that she left willingly and ground of cruelty has to be taken in divorce.
Further for adultery proof isane is also required.
Husband should file divorce petition against her.
Otherwise she will file criminal case against husband and his family members for harrasing her and demand of dowry and of abortion.
Non registration of marriage does not invalidate the performance of marriage itself and hence your marriage is still subsisting and is governed by Hindu Marriage Act.
If your wife is unemployed then you can not avoid her maintenance which is 1/4th of your income.
After 12 months from the date of marriage you can file contested suit for divorce on the ground of mental cruelty and her adultery.
Unless she agrees for mutual divorce there is no scope for speedy divorce.
Sir,

Hi
In order to file for divorce, you need to have strong case and proofs.
You need to prove your case before the court.
In all probability, you may face 498-A, DVC, Sec.125 and / or other cases against you and your family members.
As far as alimony is concerned it will be the subject matter at a final stage.
NOTE:
# Try and collate evidence / material in support of your case before filing for divorce.
# when a wife is highly qualified and can sustain on her own, the quantum of maintenance and / or alimony will substantially comes down, but you need to prove the same.
Divorce can be filed only once this marriage turns one year old.
Approach the Family Court after 2 months and file and contest a divorce petition against your spouse.

Dear Sir,
It is better to file Restitution of conjugal rights against your wife in family court.
If RCR is passed it will help you in proving that you are innocent, she cannot claim maintenance from you
she is deserter in the eyes of laws , she has no right of maintenance in future, husband will be in safer place
RCR will be passed and if she fails to join him within one year ,it a ground for divorce for husband for failure of restitution decree
If she denies to cohabit with you even after the R.C.R. decree is awarded then you can file an suit for execution of such decree under order 21 Rule 32 of the Civil Procedure code and then after a lapse of one year from the date of such R.C.R. decree you can file divorce petition u/s 13 (1-A)(ii) of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955. If conjugal right is not restored within one year of getting the RCR decree, the aggrieved party is eligible to get divorce.
SEC 9 OF HMA – restitution of conjugal rights. it is a prayer by a petitioner; summon by a competent court ; and order by a court to the spouse who left her matrimonial duties without sufficient reason.
- Registration of marriage is compulsory in India, but unregistered marriage does not become null and void in absence of it.
- If, wife is hightly qualified and able to maintain herself , she has no right to ask for maintenance from her husband, - A qualified wife is not allowed to sit idle and claim for maintenance.
- Since, on being asked for DNA Test , she got abortion , hence husband is right to suspect for adultery.
- Further, she is living separetely since last 7 months out of 10 months, its means she is not interested to continue with her husband.
- Adultery and Separation is a good ground for getting divorce from the court of law.
- For , filing Divorce petition, 12 months separation is mandatory.
- After 12 months from the date of marriage , the husband can file Divorce case against wife , on the ground of Adultery, Separation and Cruelty .
- Divorce procedure may take long time .
- Better talk with the wife for a Mutual Divorce
Good luck and dont forget to positive rating.

Dear
The divorce can be filed after completion of one year of marriage. Husband should wait for two more months to file divorce.
if the divorce is opposed by wife it could take around two to three years to reach the decision.
And if wife agree for divorce case can conclude in 6 to 8 months.
Yes husband have to give maintenance to his wife as her right if she can't able to maintain herself.
Even though the marriage was not registered since the same has been properly solemnized as per religious rights and rituals, the marriage is legally valid.
For filing a contested divorce on the grounds of cruelty it should be more than a year after the marriage.he may have to wait for another two months to initiate legal process for divorce.
