Hi 1) The wife will get the custody of 1.5 years old daughter. 2) The wife can file for divorce on the grounds of cruelty/ harassment/adultery(depending on evidence she has). 3) The husband can also file for divorce on grounds of irretrievable break up of marriage. 4) The husband might have to provide for alimony to the wife and maintenance for daughter(about 40-50% of his current earnings will go towards alimony and maintenance). 5) Also the wife might file DOmestic violence case and 498a case against the man just to take revenge on the husband. so the man has to be cautious of the same.
