If after service of summons your wife does not turn up , the court may proceed to hear your case ex parte.

No time limit could be predicted.
Definitely.
She can either contest or accede to your claims.
Yes her Written statesmen.
Yes it would be valid irrespective of current residence of your wife.

However do bear in your mind that ex parte hearing may not necessarily mean judgement and order in your favour specially if you fail to make a case on your favour.

you may get relief ex-parte but the same is subject to certain condidtions.

otherwise, there are judgments of Delhi HC and P&H high court whereby, in case of divorce by mutual consent, filing of petition through Special Power of Attorney is allowed.
