Clarification on amount of maintenance to paid to working wife
05-Jun-2023 (In Divorce Law)
My wife's current salary is 5k per month, and my current salary is 37k per month. How much should the learned court direct or passed order for maintenance case? Please notify me as soon as possible.
The Supreme Court, in Kalyan Dey Chowdhury vs Rita Dey Chowdhury, has held that 25 per cent of the husband’s net salary would be just and proper to be awarded as maintenance to the wife.
Apart the main motive of alimony is to secure that the wife can lead that standard of life which she was maintaining with her husband earlier.
