1. Yes , both of you can live separately. You can decide later on about taking divorce.
2. You can keep the son with you. If she also wants the son then she can go to court to get his custody.
3.You are legally bound to maintain your wife and she is co-owner of the house.
4.Yes, if she is unemployed , she can claim alimony.
5.If you have proof of sexual intercourse between the two then case of adultery u/s 497 lies against that third person but nothing could be done against your wife.
6. Suit for divorce is only action that you can take against your wife. It takes more than 4-5 years unless both of you go for mutual divorce which takes not more than six months.

If we go for devorce ... Money which she earned d uring our married life ..can she claim for that all money ? ( and what if i donot have that money now ... As we spent it on our house and insurance policy and some other investments like in gold and all .

She can claim all in which she has a share.

Dear Mr. Barman ..

Heartly Thank you for your support and valuable guidance .
Adv D P Jindal (Expert) 04 June 2014
First of all you decide what you want. Can you adjust with her involvement, if so, accept it, if you cannot, go for divorce and try to get it by mutual consent, as she did not want to leave that person. You may keep your son by court order, as you can give better life to him. If she is earning more than you, you are also eligible for the same status of living and can demand maintenance.

The money spent during the married life cannot be claimed but if any asset has been by way of joint efforts, only then wife can claim.
