The court cited a Bombay high court's order saying all live-in relationships do not amount to a relationship in the nature of marriage to get the benefit of the DV Act. If the woman is a married woman, she cannot enter a domestic relationship with another man as under Section 2(f) of the DV Act.
Live-in-relationship is not considered a criminal act even if the couple are married to different partners at the time they are living together. Your respective spouses can file for a contested divorce but you are not criminally liable.
It would be a crime if a married woman stays in a live-in relationship with another person without ending her marriage. And the person living in such a relationship with a woman will be considered a criminal under Section 494/495 of the IPC.
It is not adultery if you have already separated
If you engage in a sexual relationship with someone while you are still legally married, it is technically adultery even if you and your former partner do not live together anymore and are no longer emotionally or physically in a relationship.

If a couple must stay apart, it shouldn't be for more than six months or maximum one year. During this period, conscious and sustained efforts must be made to manage the issues which distance breeds like loneliness, non-frequent sex, lack of emotional and physical support.
Make sure that your relationship is over before you date
Just because you have started divorce proceedings does not mean that you have cut emotional ties with your ex. If you harbour any hope of a reconciliation you are not ready to start dating. You should not date because your ex has moved on and is dating.
Yes, it can be possible for a married person to fall in love with someone else. Feelings for another person may happen for various reasons, whether an individual's needs are not being fully met in the marriage, or they are unable to be fully vulnerable with their partner.
What is cohabitation? Living together with someone is also sometimes called 'cohabitation'. A cohabiting couple is a couple that lives together in an intimate and committed relationship, who are not married to each other and not in a civil partnership. Cohabiting couples can be opposite-sex or same-sex.
Living together with someone is sometimes also called cohabitation. Generally speaking, you will have fewer rights if you're living together than if you're married. This information explains the legal differences between being married and living together.
What is cohabitation? “Cohabitation” is commonly referred to as “living together.” It describes the relationship of a man and woman who are sexually active and share a household, though they are not married.
In most cultures, the modern woman has the capability to be independent and self-sufficient, and she can live a fulfilling life even without a romantic partner. If and when she chooses to have a man in her life, it will be on her own terms.
A couple can live together without being married. But even if they have been together for one, three, 15 or 40 years, and even if they have several children together, they are never “automatically” married.
Commitment is a key difference between marriage and live-in relationship. Research shows that married couples are more likely to report overall satisfaction and a greater level of commitment than those in a live-in relationship. Research also shows that cohabitation is not always a well-thought-out decision.

The only ground for divorce is that the marriage broke down and there is no reasonable chance that the parties will get back together. The Federal Circuit and Family Court of Australia (the Court) has the jurisdiction or power to deal with divorce under Part VI of the Family Law Act 1975.

In most states, divorcing couples are allowed to live together. In those states, if a separation date is required for the paperwork, you use the date that one or both of you decided to end the marriage.
Sometimes, couples just grow apart, but not to the point where they hate one another. They just recognize that they'd be better off as ex-spouses and end their marriage amicably. In fact, some divorces are so friendly that spouses continue to live together throughout the divorce process and even beyond.
The number one reason why people cheat is a lack of connection in the relationship. Most people do not realize how important creating, maintaining, and nurturing a connection in a relationship is.
It is important to understand that Adultery is a crime in many jurisdictions, although it is rarely prosecuted. State law typically defines Adultery as vaginal intercourse, only. Therefore, two people seen kissing, groping, or engaged in oral sex, do not meet the legal definition of Adultery.
Adultery refers to marital infidelity. When two partners, of whom at least one is married to another party, have sexual relations—even transient ones—they commit adultery. According to the Catechism of the Catholic Church, those who are engaged must refrain from sexual relations until after the marriage ceremony.
