6. The criterion for 'solemnization of marriage under Special marriage Act' revealed is follows:

For solemnization of marriage, presence of both parties is required after submission of documents of issuance of notice of intended marriage. A copy of the notice is pasted on the office notice board by the SDM. Any person may within 30 days of issue of notice, file objection to the intended marriages. In such a case, the SDM shall not solemnise the marriage until he has decided the objection, within 30 days of its receipt. If the SDM refuses to solemnise the marriage, any of the parties may file an appeal within 30 days to the District Court. In case no objection is received, the SDM solemnises the marriage after 30 days of the notice. Both parties alongwith 3 witnesses are required to be present on the date of solemnisation of marriage. It is advisable to submit names of witnesses atleast one day in advance.

Advisable, not to give the residence address of your parents (both the parents of girl and boy) and give some other address and it is necessary that the applicant have been staying in that address for more than 30 days.

Read Section 5 of Special marriage act:

5. Notice of intended marriage

When a marriage is intended to be solemnized under this Act, the parties to the marriage shall give notice thereof in writing in the form specified in the Second Schedule to the Marriage Officer of the district in which at least one of the parties to the marriage has resided for a period of not less than thirty days immediately preceding the date on which such notice is given.

as im not gonna stay in india.. what address can i give? as they need my identity proof(passport,voter ID,driving license), there will the address of parents..

is there any other way for the marriage to be done? i cannot be present while issuing of notice.. 

YOu can give a different address (say, that of your friend) and claim that as you have disputes with your parents, you have been staying separately from them.   There is a HC judgement stating that the notices should not be sent to the addresses of parents of bride and bridegroom. 

However your presence is necessary while issuing notice.
