FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS


There are two main types:
• Mutual Consent Divorce – Both spouses agree to divorce by mutual consent.
• Contested Divorce – One spouse files for divorce without the other's consent, citing legal grounds.

Divorce is governed by personal laws:
• Hindu Marriage Act, 1955 (for Hindus, Buddhists, Jains, Sikhs)
• Muslim Personal Law (Shariat).
• Indian Divorce Act, 1869 (for Christians)
• Parsi Marriage and Divorce Act, 1936 (for Parsis)
• Special Marriage Act, 1954 (for interfaith or secular marriages)

The legal grounds for divorce vary depending on the personal law. Common grounds include:
• Cruelty (physical or mental).
• Adultery (extramarital affair).
• Desertion (living separately for 2 or more years).
• Conversion to another religion.
• Mental disorder or incurable disease.
• Renunciation of the world (in case of religious vows).
• Irretrievable breakdown of marriage (though not yet a statutory ground, recognized by the Supreme Court).
• Disharmony or conflict leading to marriage breakdown.

The following documents are typically required:
• Marriage Certificate.
• Proof of separation (usually 1 year of living separately).
• Income proof (for maintenance/alimony purposes).

• Aadhar cards or other identification proof.
• Mutual Consent Divorce petition (signed by both spouses).
• Affidavit of consent (confirming both parties agree to the divorce).
• Draft settlement regarding alimony, maintenance, and child custody (if applicable).

The divorce process typically takes around 6 months to 1 year. After filing, there is a waiting period of 6 months, which can be waived by the court under certain circumstances if both parties are in agreement.

Maintenance or alimony is not automatic but can be awarded based on the circumstances, such as the financial condition and needs of the parties involved. The Hindu Marriage Act, 1955 (Section 24 & 25) and Section 125 CrPC (maintenance) provide provisions for this.

The custody of children is decided based on their best interests, considering factors like age, health, and emotional bond with the parents. The Guardians and Wards Act, 1890 governs child custody cases.
