Dear Sir, There is no official government format or registration for such agreements in India. It’s a private legal document, enforceable to the extent that it proves mutual consent and intent.   You can prepare a “Mutual Consent and Relationship Agreement” stating clearly that: Both parties are adults and entering the relationship voluntarily. The relationship is purely consensual and does not amount to marriage or any promise of marriage. Both have full understanding of its nature and implications. Either party can withdraw from the relationship at any time without legal or financial obligation on the other.
