S.Gunasekar advocate answer. Yes, you can return her jewels and take a written receipt stating they were not dowry. Also mention you want your house key back. Waiting 2–3 months is reasonable. Yes, she can still file for divorce. Since she's working and earning, it's unlikely she'll get alimony or maintenance unless she proves dependency or special circumstances.

To be on the safer side, before returning her jewels, if any, make a list of those jewels and get her acknowledgment of receipt on stamp paper, and let her parents sign as witnesses. Consider taking video as well. To apply for divorce, you need to wait until one year is over from the date of marriage.

hi, I can well understand your concern from the query raised, you should return her jewels since they belong to her in the first place and you shall have no rights over it, with regards to the key and house hold expenses engage in a healthy discussion thank you, you can contact me for further clarifications
