It is a debatable topic although now courts have started accepting live in relationships. It strictly depends on till the time the girl is open to it..and there is no promises of marraige. For more information feel free to have a word with me. All the best

Special three judge bench of chief justice of india observed... If two people men and women want to live together, who can oppose them? If living together is an offence, then the first complaint should be file against supreme court because we have permitted living together In another case court even declared live together is Right of life "Not offence" by Supreme court

No, Premarital sex, physical intimacy or live in relationship has never been offence or illegal even a decade ago, but it has been always considered as unsocial, as our Indian society is not used to it.
