yes you can file an application under section 25 for permanent alimony and also you can file application for claiming interim maintenance under section 24 of Hindu marriage act, or you can file a separate maintenance petition under section 125 of crpc or under domestic violence act. It is better to file petition under domestic violence act as you can get maintenance and other reliefs. in 125 and section 24 and 25 you can claim only maintenance, whereas under domestic violence act you have many reliefs like, residential orders, not to alienate the property, ask for stridhan and many more reliefs which a women needs.

Generally in every case of divorce filed by a husband the grounds will be some part are cruelty are desertion by wife. it is normal in this country that a husband will be in a quite comfortable job compared to his wife which is why wife can claim alimony.
