But this all happened because my wife never acted as a wife neither she took her responsibilities of a wife. We never stayed together under a roof. do you think this is something called marriage and punishment should be given if I went for another woman?

I know its a punishable offence but are there any chances to get out of it? Does text sms exchanged with that woman is sufficient enough to proof it?

I have read somewhere that since we have never stayed together, the marriage is subject to be null and void. Is this true? we got married under Special Marriage act 1954.

That is why your have to obtain divorce from first wife then only think about another women. Otherwife it is called illicit relationship. Your wife may file divorce petition and ask maintenance for her.You have to pay any how. This is additional financial burden to you apart from the jail punishment as Mr.Ashish suggested.

You never lived together after the mariage does not mean that you are single, and living together with another man's wife is adultery pure and simple as she has not a dicvorcee. You are in deep soup. Better contact a good lawyer for your defense.

1. You have rendered yourself liable for adulerty by establishing s*xual contact with somebody's wife. However, having said that prosecutions for adultery are rare, and rarely proved, hence whether those text messages would be enough to prove the offence against you, would depend on the exact words and tenor of those messages.

2. Your estranged wife cannot sue you for adultery only the woman's husband can, he can addittionaly implicate you u/s 498 Criminal elopment as well.

3. Your wife can do something that is much worse, she can try suing you and your family u/s 498A IPC, apart from seeking maintenance.

you could go for nullity..i think

I have filed criminal complaint against my husband U/S. 498(A), 342, 507 of Indian Penal Code and U/S 3, 7 of Dowry Prohibition Act and pursuant to my aforesaid criminal complaint arrest warrant was issued U/s.70 by Learned Metropolitan Magistrate, Ahmedabad. But accuse person was not tress out and arrested by the local police as he is residing in London, United Kingdom (U.K) and therefore LOC (Look Out Circular) was issued by the competent Police authority.after following aforesaid procedure by competent police authority nothing further positive development had taken place till today and to my reasonable knowledge till today even red corner notice proceeding is not initiated by the concern in charge police officer.

Post in separate/new thread.

you are in trouble for adultery. the sms text evidentiary value depends on the language and exact wordings.

My wife will not file any case now. She wants this relationship to be continued as before...living separate but won;t give divorce. What are my options at this time? Can I file for nullity of the marriage after a year? Would she be able to file the same case again after a year on the basis of same proof and it will still be taken as offensive like it is now? I am not in any illicit relationship anymore.
