Mutual divorce is possible under Section 13B of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955 if both spouses agree. You must be living separately for at least one year and jointly file a petition in Family Court. After first motion and cooling period, final decree is passed on mutual consent. Proper settlement on alimony, custody, and property should be clearly written before filing.
