There Is no binding on a party to stick to the l 'st statement given in court u/s 13B. You can withdraw from consent. Alternatvly you can also seek further time from court to rethink . Generally court do not grant time in such cases as such in the event of withdrawal of consent or request of seeking time they dismiss the petition though legally they have discretion to adjourn the case till 18 months and dispose oo finally within this period.

Dear if any of the party changes his/her mind for not to take divorce in mutual consent divorce petition then he can simply say to judge that he doesn't want to give his statement and want to live with his wife, the petition will be dismissed.

Mutual divorce petition filed by both the parties of marriage can be adjourned upto one and half year. Second motion statement can be deferred by the court. However if your wife don't want to live with you then you can't request for adjournment on the second motion of divorce proceedings.
