Apart from the mandatory 50% share in husband’s residential properties, the wife will also be entitled to get a share in other kind of properties, but the quantum is not set, as per the Bill, it will depend on “living standard of the wife”

There divorce rules have no specific rule as such . Sharing depend on circumstances in case to case. For example dependents , spouse income , ground of divorce etc. There may be a situation where the property in question was provided 100 per cent by any one of the spouse , logically he becomes the owner and gets the same.

That would be a very difficult answer to give because that would depend on case to case basis
But as a wife you equal rights in the property of your husband

Question of sharing of property after divorce comes when the divorced wife has right title interest over the property in question. If the property in question is jointly owned by both the husband and wife then it may be partitioned mutually executing a deed of partition or by a decree for partition granted by a competent court.
