You have to apply for divorce on the ground of cruelty now or after August 2018 on grounds of cruelty and desertion of two years or more. The process will take few months or a year or so because the court summons had to be served upon your wife outside India and through Ministery of Law and Indian High Commission in her country. That itself will take 6-8 months time. The Family Court will not proceed ex-parte against your wife unless satisfied that process of sending summons to her, and she been served upon. After the court proceeds ex-parte, not much just time will take to decide and allow you divorce.
