If the same is not registered and marriage has not occurred. No need of any document to be executed

If they have a marriage certificate issued by the competent jurisdictional Registrar(Registrar of Marriages) it implies that there marriage is registered in the official records. Hence, the only way out is either to get a declaration of nullity of this marriage/marriage certificate; or to obtain mutual divorce. 

Hi

Since they have solemnized marriage under arya samaj ceremony, they will have to get a divorce from court under Hindu Marriage Act.

Best is to apply for a mutual divorce on completion of one year of registration/solemnization date of the arya samaj marriage.

Completion of one year from date of Marriage is mandatory to file mutual divorce.

Annulment or a petition for nullity is not the option considering the facts in the present case.

- Since, your friend has already performed the marriage as per Hindu Customs , and got the marriage certificate , then , legally she is his wife. 

- However, under section 12(1)(a) of Hindu Marriage Act, non consummation of marriage is a ground of divorce and annulment of marriage.

- Hence , if they never lived together as husband & wife  , then this marriage can be declared as null and void after filing a petition for Declaration before the Family Court. 

File for  divorce by mutual consent 

2) consent terms can mention that marriage has not been consummated and are staying separate for period of one year 

3) mutual consent divorce rages 6 months 

4) in alternative your friend  can file for anullment for marriage on grounds of impotency of spouse or fraud or being forced to marry against her wishes 

Hello,

2. They will need to file for a divorce by mutual consent after completion of one year of the  Arya Samaj Marriage. It will take another six months from then for the divorce to be decreed enabling both parties to remarry.
3. Annulment of marriage is not applicable in your case as there exists no exeptinal circumstances.

if their marriage has been registered before the concerned marriage officer/registrar then this marriage can be held as legally valid.

As the period of marriage is less than one year, either of the person can file a petition under section 12 of the HMA and seek for annulment of marriage on the grounds of non consummation of marriage
