She left me about a year due to several differences between us. We were married for 3 years before we seperated. We do not have any kids. I had purchased a house in both our names 3 months before our seperation, the house was bought with all monies paid by me but the loan taken was in both our names hence the house papers are also in both our names. 6 months after our seperation she stated that she wants nothing to do with the house and is willing to sign it to my name. So I prepared a "Deed Of Release" for which half the stamp duty of the house had to be paid again and got it registered at the registrar office, she came and signed at the registrar office and put her thumb impression and her photo was taken as per the transfer requirements. About 2 months after that she stated that she wans a few lakhs for the divorce which I flatly refused. Then a month later she agreed for the divorce with no money involved and when the time to file the case as per mutual agreement she came up stating that I have to speak to her cousin first and she will not take any steps forward till I speak to him, by he way her cousin is sailing and will not be back for the next 8 months..
can i file the case on abandonment grounds since she left me? or should i just wait for her to file the case?
Also can she claim for the house now?
Also her salary is about Rs.35000 a month and mine is Rs.45000 a month can she claim for maintenance from me?
