11-Feb-2026 (In Divorce Law)
I transferred X amount to wife's account after she filed 125 CrPC. Also I deposited Y ammount in the daughter's sukanya acc after the case was filed. As per law should not X+Y be deducted from the arrears? If yes, then do I object in the same court?

The total amount may be deducted from the total arrears subject to the order passed by order since i have only this information, all i can answer is without looking into the order of court the advice cannot be given. assuming that you have paid only x amount in wife account and you were asked to pay child seperately and you paid y amount. total arrears cannot deducted. individually have to calculated. if you wife has initiated recovery proceedings for arrears you have to repay that amount provided recovery cannot be done against the amount paid. note the above advice is based on assumption as info provided by you. oindly get in touch for further assistance

Dear Sir, Payments to your wife edible for deductions. A deposit into a Sukanya account is a long-term investment for the child's future and is usually locked until the child reaches a certain age. Since this money is not immediately available for the child's current daily expenses (food, clothing, education), the court may not allow it to be deducted from the immediate maintenance arrears.
