Of course she can file in Mumbai, the choosen address of her residence, no legal infirmity in deciding// accepting territorial jurisdiction.

Agree with Dr. Vashista.

@Ritesh: She can very well file the divorce suit from her chosen residence place, it is legal, why dont you try to reconcile if there are possibilities.

@Yogendra: You should open a new thread to post your queries, in others thread, you can give your reply/opinion Now to your query, the divorce case can be filed in the place of marriage or place where last resided jointly or the place where the wife is residing. Hope you can understand.
