It is considered as cruelty and he can be prosecuted by wife under Section 125 of CrPC and under Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Act. That means if wife denies sex to husband, wife can prosecute husband if he has sex outside marriage and can also prosecute husband for rape if he has sex with wife herself. That means it can lead to absolute prohibition for husband to have sex. Sexual organ is a natural organ of a human being like mouth and nose.
