Custody is not possible since child is only 6 months old...You will be getting visitation rights.

You should move a petition before Family Court under Hindu Minority and Guardianship Act for such visiting rights.

Custody is impossible. For visiting right you will have to file a case in the civil court.
Karnataka High Court judgement is there that mother is the right person to take of the child.
