A divorce petition on mutual consent can be said to have consented only when the concerned parties put their signatures on the papers meant for the purpose.  A Power of Attorney deed can be given for any specific or general purpose.  If the principle of the said deed is living at abroad, the deed needs to be counter-signed/attested by the Ambassador of the Indian Embassy in that country or by the Commissioner of the Indian High Commission situated in that country  and then the power agent's signature to be attested by a local Notary/SDM or any other authority within the jurisdiction of the Agent.  In this case the POA deed should specify particularly the works to be done by the Agent in the absence of the principle and the same shall be ratified by the principle afterwards.  Before  that the MCD petition signed by the petitioner should have his signature attested by the respective Indian High Official situated in that country, then it becomes authentic. As far as fee to be affixed on the divorce petition as per the Tamilnadu Court Fee act is Rs. 25/- and court fee to be affixed on the vakalat is Rs. 37/-, the advocate fee differs from person to person. The court fees for the purpose varies from state to state in India.
