II ^nd part of Your Question

A question which has often arisen for consideration before the Supreme Court is whether the Supreme Court can, in exercise of its inherent power under Article 142 of the Constitution of India, waive the six-month period as mandated by Section 13-B (2). This question has consistently been answered, either impliedly or expressly, in the affirmative, to the relief of many who are eager for an immediate divorce. In numerous cases, mostly arising out of a transfer petition (filed by the wife or husband for transfer of cases from one state to another), the Supreme Court has often successfully persuaded parties to settle their matrimonial disputes and as per the terms of settlement, the parties move an application before the Supreme Court for divorce by mutual consent. The Supreme Court has thereafter immediately allowed such applications, granting the parties divorce in exercise of its power under Article 142 and hence impliedly waiving the six-month period between the first and the second motion.
