How much is the maximum alimony amount to be Paid in Contested divorce
08-Jan-2023 (In Divorce Law)
I am a physically challenged person (OH). I have 2 sons. Elder son is 4 years old and younger is 6 months old. They both are with my wife in her parents house. I have applied for divorce on the grounds of cruelty. My take home salary is Rs.35000. I would like to know what would be the maximum alimony amount i should have to pay to my wife if i have to get divorce as per law. Whether any ceiling is there for that?
The Supreme Court has set a bench of 25% of the husband's net salary to be paid as alimony to the estranged wife. The Court said 25% is a “just and proper” amount for alimony as husband might have to take care of the needs of his family, if he has remarried.
