The conditions required under section 13B of the Hindu Marriage Act are as follows:

(i) Husband and wife have been living separately for a period of one year or more.

(ii) That they are unable to live together.

(iii) And that both husband and wife have mutually agreed that the marriage has totally collapsed. Hence marriage should be dissolved. Under these circumstances, a Divorce by Mutual consent can be filed.

As per the Indian Legal system, a divorce procedure fundamentally begins with the filing of a divorce petition.

If both side agreed for mutual divorce, you can file divorce in the court of your jurisdiction. it may be place of marriage, place of cohabitation, husband or wife's residential area. settlement needs to be agreed including jewelry, utensils, one time amount. if both agreed for the above and attend court hearing regularly, divorce can be ordered in 2 months to max 6 months
