Yes you can file only when it's extremely hard to reside with your spouse. Or else you can file mutual divorce after one year of separation . But it will take minimum 6 month to 1 year to get the divorce.

13-B-2(ii) says "The period of living separately for one year must be immediately preceding the presentation of petition. The expression ‘living separately' connotes not living like husband and wife. It has no reference to the place of living. The parties may live under the same roof and yet they may not be living as husband and wife." it is a directory, and before one year of the marriage you can not file petition for divorce even by mutual consent.what seems to be necessary is that they have no desire to perform marital obligations and with that mental attitude they have been living separately for a period of one year immediately preceding the presentation of the petition. However the other statutory period of six months as stipulated in 13-b-2 for passing decree of divorce can be waived

No you can't pray for divorce within one year of your marriage . But their is another provisions in the special marriage Act to declare the marriage nul and void . You can take that plea in the court or contact with me for better suggestions
