Yes, you can file the divorce on this ground itself before the family court and can get order in your favour. As per the law, the court can grant you the divorce. The only think you have to do to file a divorce through your lawyer.

If the behaviour of your wife is intolerable towards you then you can always file for divorce against her under cruelty grounds. But I would suggest you to go for the mutual divorce because it is less money consuming and ends up in maximum of six months. For more legal assistance I am just a call away.

Yes you can't file a petition for divorce on the ground of mental cruelty. Refusing to have sexual intercourse by a spouse without any reasonable medical condition would amount to cruelty for which divorce can be sought and granted. You may seek a detailed consultation
