wife has no right in the property ownerd by husband in case of divorce but she can get residence order under domestic violence act and also the price of the house can be taken into consideration by court to determine the lifestyle which was enjoyed by wife earlier to determine maintenance amount

Any property purchased by Husband, has right of the wife over it. She can claim her right over the said property. Nature of the property does not create any bar on the right of the wife to claim at the time of divorce. For any further advice feel free to contact Thanks

Divorce wife doesn’t have any rights on husband’s property at all ! Divorce wife can only file maintenance case until she doesn’t marry or under certain conditions she doesn’t get maintenance! However children will always have right over parents property
