Can the divorce case be reopened after the decree?

A divorce decree under the Indian Divorce Act, 1869 is generally final, but can be re-opened only on limited grounds like fraud, coercion, procedural lapses (ex-parte orders), or violation of statutory requirements.
Challenges lie through appeal, review, or setting aside/recall of the decree within strict limitation periods.
