For a matrimonial one time alimony settlement an amount of around 50 lacs has been decided which will be paid to wife and daughter. Please confirm paying 25L to each one of them can help avoid daughter's claim of maintenance in future as per below? 1) Demand draft is paid in the name of daughter 2) A break up of amount is provided in the deed which clearly mentions say 20L for girl's education and maintenance and 5L for her wedding.

As per the legal separation maintenance law rules, no set benchmark settlement exists for one-time settlement under maintenance law. However, It ranges from 1/5th or 1/3rd of the husband’s total worth and is paid in the form of a lump-sum amount.

yes alimony or maintenance are an option, if you chose one time alimony then it is sufficient, you just need to make an agreement between both of you for future safety purpose. For Any other clarification contact an Advocate. Thanks & Regards Ankur Gupta Advocate

Even if you include this provision in your settlement deed, it would still be considered invalid. Your wife retains the right to seek maintenance from you even after divorce, particularly if she can demonstrate to the court that she requires additional support. Additionally, your daughter has the option to file a maintenance case against you if she is unmarried, unable to support herself, and is suffering from any physical or mental abnormality or injury.
