DISSOLUTION OF MARRIAGE OUT-OF-COURT IS NOT VALID

Any marriage dissolution or annulment is valid only through a court of law and it is not valid if it is settled out of court through an amicable agreement or understanding or proceeding. However, a child born to them is entitled to claim maintenance. As per Section 16 of the Hindu Marriage Act, even a child of void marriage is legitimate for all purposes, including for purpose of succession, entitlement of maintenance and so on.
