dear, only supreme court of india has power to condone the statutory period of six months under article 142 and neither district court nor high court have the power , if you want to get the divorce before six months approach the supreme court of india Judgement: Anil Kumar Jain vs Maya Devi decided on 1.9.2009 in appeal no 5592/2009

In our court it is happened that in mutual divorce petition without waiting for the 6 months mandatory period divorce has been granted. To get within six months you have move an application.

Different High Courts have got different views. The Delhi High Court, Calcutta High Court has precedents to waive the intervening period of six months.
