Madam have some common sense how will he service in only 20000 . No way you have to ask for only 30000 not more then that . The court too will provide 1/3 to you and 1/5 fir the kid .but why monthly money go fir divorce and for one time alimony when you are not interested in living with husband why to pull this for life .

Answer #3

hello maintenance depends upon the financial condition of each person. you have not mention about your earning whether you are working or not? In most cases, the wife gets 20-35 per cent of a husband's net taxable income as alimony. If the woman is working, she can still get maintenance if the court feels her demands are reasonable, if she has dependents or if her income is not sufficient to support the lifestyle she enjoyed while married

Answer #5

Hi. As for your query on how much you will be entitled to. This is dependent on a variety of factors . First off, whether you are an educated lady, having an independent source of income. Whether you are a college graduate or whether you have ever worked before and have ceased to do so in the past five years. The law has also been amended recently, you will also be required to file an affidavit of income at some point at the same time as your husband in order to correctly ascertain what is your lifestyle expenses. I will require more details in order to correctly ascertain this. However, if given the fact that hes making only Rs. 70 K and nothing else. Then you should expect around 25-35 K.
