for MCD both parties have to stay separate for one year before applying for divorce by mutual consent .

no application for divorce can be made within first year of marriage except in exceptional circumstances

Divorce within a year of marriage, that too the lady want to live with another person? why did she get married? if married why does she not want to continue?
Repeated query.
Biswanath Roy (Expert) 16 July 2014
Although the query is fallacious but she can leave her husband by descertion without taking divorce.Her decisive power is very poor that's why she took five months time to think over the end.
Raj Kumar Makkad (Expert) 16 July 2014
One year clear separation is must for filing MCD.
T. Kalaiselvan, Advocate (Expert) 16 July 2014
for proper and legal action, i.e.,divorce, separation of one year and then MCD case which will take another 6 months is one option, another option, just after completion of one year, a petition for divorce on the readily available grounds namely, cruelty can be applied, in which, if the husband, upon receiving the summons expresses his unwillingness to live with her anymore and files a memo seeking permission to submit to the decree as prayed for by her, the divorce can be granted in a more shorter period. If she wants to live with another person without undergoing the above processes, she can do it at the cost of risking herself to any legal action that may be slapped on her.
