Hi,
You will have to wait for one year from date of marriage for seeking divorce. You will have to defend 498 A Matter. She is not ready to live with your parents you may take that ground along eith cruelty for seeking divorce. Thanks

Sir
Divorce petition can be filed only after 1year of marriage unless you can show extreme hardship and get permission of the Hon'ble Court to file before but as its already 8 months it will be better to file after 4 months during which you can consult advocate and prepare your divorce petition.

Yes you can file case of divorce against your spouse on the ground of cruelty as well as desertion, however i suggest though you may not intend to cohabitate with your wife you should file petition of Restitution of conjugal rights in alternate grant of divorce, in this way court will understand that you case is genuine and may direct your wife to reside with you either or get divorce with condition to withdraw the criminal case filed against you.
