So shall you start re-reading my earlier large piece from 42nd. step (line) onwards Sir !!!

You are seeking "forcast" and my earlier reply "fate" is expressed below like;

Wife is not not budging from her stated price of divorce ie she is still wanting 35 lakhs and 1bhk apartment, otherwise she told me "go and fight in court". 

I have decided to file a petition in the court-my question is :

1. Should i file under "irretrivable breakdown of marriage"???? Judging by the speed in indian legal maze-maybe by the time my case comes up for hearing-the law would have been edited with proposed ammendments;

2. Or i should not risk it, and hence file under "mental cruelty"???

again I can say only tajobsir can give you best answer.
