In India, the legal age for marriage is 18 for girls and 21 for boys. A 17-year-old girl cannot marry legally, and any such marriage is voidable. It may also invite legal action against the person she marries. Wait until she turns 18 to proceed with a valid court marriage. For further legal assistance contact us on our helpline number.
