Explain more of your question. Is this for divorce or what? The present Indian Divorce Amendment Act has removed the requirement for confirmation and therefore the decree nisi that was earlier is now redundant. The order of the District Judge is a final order; confirmation is not required. Only the decree can be appealed against before the next higher court.

There is no time limit for the Petitioner to apply to the Court for Decree Nisi once the Acknowledgement of Service has been received from the Respondent, however if the time lapse is excessive it may be necessary for the Petitioner to explain the reason for the delay. Once the Decree Nisi has been granted the Petitioner can apply for Decree Absolute six weeks later. If the Petitioner does not apply to have the Decree made absolute, once three months have elapsed from the earliest date on which the Petitioner could have applied for Decree Absolute, the Respondent may apply for Decree Absolute. Therefore the earliest that the Respondent can apply is three months and six weeks after the pronouncement of the Decree Nisi. If neither the Petitioner nor Respondent has applied for the Decree Absolute after twelve months then any application for Decree Absolute must be referred to a District Judge who must ensure that various information is provided."
