In the state of gujarat divorce with the consent of the local community leaders, certain backward communities can obtain divorce on a divorce deed duly stamped.

The said divorce is legally recognized.

An agreement on stamp paper to divorce and other subsequent, inciliary conditions will not assure you a legal divorce. Although it would legally validate the conditions the parties are agreeing and submitting to.
The parties would have to apply to the concerned family court under the respective law for mutual divorce and the agreement on stamp paper can act as a governing agreement.
Mere agreement on stamp paper and not attaining a judicial pronouncement would not mean divorce.
Approach me for further clarifications, if any.
