In majority of cases, the mother has the chances to have the custody of the child under 5 years of age. But it is the discretion of the court to decide that which parent has the capability to take care of the child. The welfare of the child is of paramount importance, thus the court shall also look into the financial capacity of the parent before granting the custody.
