Q: Clarification regarding cooling off period
Me and my wife has filed for mutual divorce in August 2026. On first hearing on September 05, 2026 , we were sent for mediation which got failed where we both stated that we wanted to separate mutually. Now next date is in November.My first motion statement are yet to be recorded. Could you clarify whether cooling period of 6 month is considered from date of filing of petition or from date of recording of statement for first motion as in act it is mentioned from date of presentation of petition.
Advocate Mamta Patel answered
नमस्ते,आपकी स्थिति मैं समझ सकती हूँ। मध्यस्थता विफल हो चुकी है, दोनों अलग होना चाहते हैं, और अब बस यही जानना है कि इंतज़ार कितना करना होगा।* हिंदू विवाह अधिनियम, 1955 (Hindu Marriage Act, 1955) की धारा 13B(2) के अनुसार 6 महीने की गिनती याचिका प्रस्तुत करने की तारीख से होती है, बयान दर्ज होने की तारीख से नहीं। आपकी याचिका अगस्त 2026 की है, तो अवधि लगभग फरवरी 2027 में पूरी होगी।राहत की बात यह है कि सुप्रीम कोर्ट ने Amardeep Singh v. Harveen Kaur, (2017) 8 SCC 746 में कहा है कि यह अवधि अनिवार्य नहीं, निर्देशात्मक है, और उचित मामलों में अदालत इसे माफ कर सकती है। संविधान पीठ ने भी Shilpa Sailesh v. Varun Sreenivasan, 2023 INSC 468 में यही बात दोहराई है।आपके मामले में मध्यस्थता विफल होना और आपसी सहमति आपके पक्ष में है। पर अभी याचिका को सिर्फ़ 2 महीने हुए हैं, इसलिए माफी अदालत के विवेक पर है, मैं इसका पक्का आश्वासन नहीं दे सकती।मेरी सलाह है कि स्त्रीधन, भरण-पोषण और कस्टडी जैसी सारी शर्तें लिखित में तय कर लें, फिर अपने वकील के ज़रिए नवंबर की तारीख़ पर माफी का आवेदन दें। साथ ही डिक्री तक दोनों की सहमति बनी रहनी चाहिए (Sureshta Devi v. Om Prakash, (1991) 2 SCC 25)।
