In subsequent hearings, you will be intimidated when you need to be present.

Dear sir,

1. Your physical presence would be necessary at time of recording the evidence because that's when you'll be required to enter the witness box. For everything else, you can have a lawyer representing you. Right now due to COVID you can attend the court proceedings through video conferencing. This would not have been possible otherwise. 

2. Yes, she can file. The stage of proof/evidence comes later. A case can be filed against you without any evidence. 

As per law, you are not "supposed to keep quite", however, you are not supposed to be violent too. 

1. For filing of petition you do not have to come if you can sign the divorce petition and post to your lawyer in India after attestation.

2. For evidence you will have to appear personally in the court.

3. Woman can certainly file DV case without any proof.

Dear Sir,

Now, the law is enlarged in India and many family Courts allowing video conference for mutual divorce and even for contested divorce. Your wife can file domestic violence case within 1 year of separation from you in India. If you are residing Abroad for more than 1 year then she cannot file such DV case. Even if such case is filed you can approach the High Court and get stay order and/or quash orders against such proceedings.  

Hello,

The law provides the option to file divorce where either husband or wife resides or last recoding place. Since now you don't stay in India you can file divorce where your wife is currently staying.

Through power of attorney you can file the case, hence you don't need to come to India. Now becouse of covid-19 many courts are taking there hearings through video conferencing. Hence you have that option. But to file any document and for councillation you need to apoint your representative through POA. If want to settlement that you can do on VC with permission and availability.

Women can file domastic violence case any point. And to bring the proof or evidence is always on applicant and deciding power will held in hand of court where to accept the evidences brought by applicant. 

As a man don't respond her with filthy language or any abusive language or filthy text etc. As you must be contacting through whats app and such other app. Thease chat can be show in the court as evidence either by you or your wife. Respond her with passive language and be calm. Even telephonic call can be recorded and produce in court. So don't give any chance to opposite party to create evidence .

Merely because wife is threatening to file DV case against you , abuses you is not ground for anullment of marriage 

husband can record conversation 

file for divorce on grounds of mental cruelty 

wife has no share in husband self acquired property 

The marriage cannot be annulled for the said reasons mentioned in your post. 

The following are the grounds by which a petition can be filed seeking annulment of marriage:

Grounds For Annulment
The grounds for a marriage annulment may vary according to the different legal jurisdictions, but are generally limited to fraud, bigamy, blood relationship and mental incompetence including the following:
1) Either spouse was already married to someone else at the time of the marriage in question;
2) Either spouse was too young to be married, or too young without required court or parental consent. (In some cases, such a marriage is still valid if it continues well beyond the younger spouse's reaching marriageable age);
3) Either spouse was under the influence of drugs or alcohol at the time of the marriage;
4) Either spouse was mentally incompetent at the time of the marriage;
5) If the consent to the marriage was based on fraud or force;
6) Either spouse was physically incapable to be married (typically, chronically unable to have sexual intercourse) at the time of the marriage;
7) The marriage is prohibited by law due to the relationship between the parties. This is the "prohibited degree of consanguinity", or blood relationship between the parties. The most common legal relationship is 2nd cousins; the legality of such relationship between 1st cousins varies around the world.
8) Prisoners sentenced to a term of life imprisonment may not marry.
9) Concealment (e.g. one of the parties concealed a drug addiction, prior criminal record or having a sexually transmitted disease).

Your case do not fall on the above category.

If your wife is abusive and always quarrel then you cannot remain idle or silent, out of provocation you too would have retaliated, however she may create such retaliations as reasons or grounds for domestic violence, hence you may gather evidences to counter her allegations during the trial proceedings and get the case dismissed.

Your wife is not entitled to any share in your property or your savings bank account balance amount as a right, whether still married or divorced.

Sir

You can settle the marriage if both the parties are agree on certain terms and conditions irrespective of number of years. That means you can mutually take divorce. Annulment marriage has different circumstances under law. 

Wife can file domastic violence case, and it is her responsibility to bring evidence. If she does not have evidence ahe still can file a divorce. But whether the case will stand or not is different question. 

If wife is abusive it not that man should keep quit. Defence is best option than the attack is the best option. Everyone understands that every man have level of patience and beyond that it is quit difficult to keep calm. But in your situation you both are living seperately hence it is bit easy for you to ignore your wife's abusive words. Even if use abusive language don't respond with same language, try to handle the situation differently.

As a wife she is responsibility of husband and therefore she is equally have right over husband property. In case both are getting divorce wife can ask maximum 50 % share from the husbands property. Even if wife is earning. But if the case contests it will be Judge who will decide how much share to give. Apart from that you can defend the case as your lawyer can do it best. 

If settlement takes place then it is both of you will decide the amount of settlement and other things.
