Hi,
You have an option to seek a divorce by filing a petition under section 13 B of the Hindu Marriage Act 1954. The expenses consists of filing charges , court fees and professional lawyers fees. It varies from lawyer to lawyer and depends where it needs to be filed.

Hi,
I believe you are based in Delhi. The mutual decree is granted by 2nd motion which is 6 months after 1st motion but can be waived in special circumstances. Feel free to connect.
