The definition of defamation clearly states that, " ....by words either spoken or intended to be read, or by signs or by visible representations, makes or publishes any imputation.... "
This anything sent on what's app which harms the reputation can definitely come under purview of defamation (backed by S. 66 IT act and Indian evidence Act)
Punishment is imprisonment up to 2 years or fine or both
One cannot state the exact time for the case to conclude since it's a complete trial and takes a minimum of 1.5 to 2 years
