Well, you should file a Petition in Court to get a Decree to declare your Marriage as Null and Void. You should do this with immediate effect. Non Disclosure of his Baldness, Salary Details can be a ground for Divorce and to file a case against them under Section 420 of the IPC, 1860, still you need more gronds to declare your Marriage Null and Void rather than seeking Divorce which is the best option available with you. I will guide you regards the other grounds available to seek your Marriage Null and Void.

As per the divorce laws, it is not possible to file for divorce with 1 year of marriage unless there is an exceptional reason acceptable to court to allow such filing of petition. Instead, you may file for nullity of marriage on the basis of lies about he being bald, their propery and his salary by contending that your consent for marriage was obtained by fraud and you can claim compensation as well.

Sorry to know about your situation. You may file a private complaint before the magistrate for being cheated. As you said if they have hidden certain facts before marriage then it is a case of 420 IPC. Apart from this yoh may also file complaint under sections of domestic violence Act..
