Since you already attended the court after receiving the summon, you should have kept a follow-up either by yourself or through an advocate. Ignorance of law excuses no one. Since you did not contested the divorce proceeding by filing w/s your defence was struck down therefore ex parte decree for divorce and maintenance was drawn and passed. Now you need to get the copy of the decree from the court. You might have to approach the high court for appeal/revision and also file a condonation application u/s 5 of the Limitation Act. But be clear, high court might impose exemplary cost for condoning the delay. But that is the discretion of the court, it might not also impose any and allow your condonation application, depending on the grounds of delay and other circumstantial facts. For better guidance you can contact me through Vidhikarya along with copy of the case records and judgement.
