Deciding whether your wife is entitled for maintenance under section 125 Crpc depends on the facts of the case that what is the status of your wife before and after the marriage and how qualified your wife is. There are few conditions to be fulfilled before getting the maintenance

if your lawyer can prove the fact that she is having some vocational training in any skill or she is able to run her livelihood and by choice is not working then in that case there is a chance of it to be getting exempted or it can be a bit less

125 crpc is invoked in a limited sense of immediate relief. However there are judgments of Apex courts which says that if wife is capable of earning and not doing anything of her choice, her maintenance can be curtailed. But this has to be proven in court. Feel free to contact.

Dear client

A claim for maintenance under section 125 depends on various factors which have been settled by the Supreme Court in Rajnesh v Neha. Merely based on education claim for maintenance cannot be denied.
