How many days after contested divorce can I remarry in India?

Husband remarried after appeal period and before he gets private court notice from appeal party (ex wife). The appeal was filed by ex-wife 120days from the initial judgment with 151CPC petition. Is the second marriage valid as the husband remarried after appeal period and before he gets the notice? What would be the view of HC on this?

Ma’am, as per the court directions appeal period is of 30 days and after this period husband is eligible to remarry. However, in a full bench ruling, the Bombay High Court ruled that a Hindu may get married again 90 days after receiving a divorce, provided that no appeal against the decree is underway.
