Dear Client,
In the present circumstances you can not Adopt.
First , it is not legal to live in relationship with another woman while your marriage is still legally valid.
Second, you can not adopt without the consent of your wife .
Third, you can do so only after the divorce and paying adequate and sufficient compensation to your wife and child.
Only after Adoption you can give ,name,title(surname) etc as per the law and set procedure as well as customs.
Shanti Ranjan Behera,
Advocate

Dear client Just think yourself and use your own brain. When u have not taken Divorce from your first wife then your marriage or relation ship with other lady is null and void. Your first wife and your valid son is entitled for maintenance and share in your property. U will get only 1/3 of your property.
According sec 7 HIndu Adoption And Maintenance Act 1956 husband can adopt a child with consent of his legal married wife. so if your First wife consents for it only then u can adopt.
