Correct answer C

For divorce by mutual consent under s.13B of the Hindu Marriage Act the essentials are that "They have been living separately for one year", that "They have not been able to live together", and that "They have mutually agreed that the marriage should be dissolved", given with free consent. The condition that "The wife has not received any maintenance" is not a requirement, so it is not essential.
