Law has provisions to draw presumption of marriage when a man and women are living together for many years.
I have yet not come across where such relations are presumed to be live in Relationship or Concubinage by law.
Presumption in law are always subject to proving otherwise. So unless it is proved that woman living with man is not his wife, law will presume her to be wife.
The law is discussed in Madan Mohan Singh V Rajni Kant (2010) 9 SCC 209
