this is maybe not going to sound good, but bear with me, i have my reasons.

i married a Indian lady roughly 3 years ago. the marriage is not really going well and we are probably going to either separate or end things amicably with a quickie divorce soon. she hasn't yet received her ILR yet, but i would like her to get it before we split up since i do get on ok with her. What's the best way to go about her getting ILR, i don't want to make her life here harder than it is?

before my marriage to the 1st lady i had been in touch with a different woman in India who i now want to marry. To apply for a spouse visa I guess I am going to need documentational proof that my marriage is in the process of ending, and I would ideally like to start this process now as it takes a long time. What would constitute proof?

What visa does your wife currently have and when does it expire?

If you support her application for ILR even though you have no intention of remaining together both you and she will be using deception in an immigration application which is a criminal offence.

If you try to prove that your relationship to your wife is ending now in order to assist your future wife's application then how are you then going to demonstrate that your current wife's application is subsisting in her application for ILR?

Whatever you do I think you may have a struggle trying to sponsor your second wife (presuming your first wife is here on a spouse visa) as they may doubt that the relationship is genuine.

yes my current wife is here on a marriage settlement visa. it expires Nov 2012.

i agree, the whole matter is messy, I am trying my best to find a solution where everyone wins, or at least works out well for everyone.

any ideas please?

i don't think many people are going to give you ideas on how best to lie.
