You have to wait till the decision of the divorce petition filed by the lady. If the divorce petition is filed under section 13 b of the hindu marriage act I.e. divircev on mutual consent then you can marry with the lady immediately after the passing of decree but if it has been filed filed under section 13 (1) of the act I.e. on other grounds then you have to wait till the elapse of time period granted for statutory appeal against the decree passed by the court. If the appeal is not filed within statutory period of filing of appeal then you can marry her.
