Nobody can tell you that, because no one here can predict what'll happen during the trial. You'll have to prove desertion and your wife may come up with a case that she was illtreated by you and so she was compelled to leave your house. Such contested cases may take some time. In matrimonial cases, it is always better you settle the matter out of court and go for divorce by mutual consent.

Dear Gyan I have deep sympathy with you. Your plight has become every second man's story. you must move for divorce on the ground of desertion as the marriage has been completly failed and moreover she is unable to perform her matrimonial duties. But take my kind advice that first of all you have to prepare your case. As all the law of lans are in favour of women. She may file domestic violence case inter alia in future. So first go to concerned Police Station and Lodge a complait that your wife has deserted you and threatening to you to implicate in a false and imaginary case of domistic violence for dowry. This complaint will help you during trial a lot. Then move divorce petition. And I am sure that you will get decree of divorce very soon. Best of luck.
