Mutual divorce can be taken by mutual consent of husband and wife. No other parents or person can be involve by mutual consent of divorce. Six month period is required for taking divorce this type of case.

Hi, It is not legally required to involve parents on either side, for undertaking the process of mutual divorce.
Mutual Divorce can be obtained by two adults who are willing to separate with mutual consent and agreement.
Role of the Parents on either side is more for family support and getting correct advise.

Well there is no requirement of law to involve parents in Mutual consent Divorce proceedings. In fact in only few out of all mutual consent proceedings handled by me over the years, there has been presence of parents at the time of court proceedings. Having said that, though there is no Legal requirement for involvement of parents, however it is good to tell them at least or take their guidance, as matter is likely to get settled by involving elders.

your query is too short too answer. however, involvement of parents of either (husband or wife) is not mandatory but good if they involved from wife side.

for further clarification you can call/mail me.
