How much maintenance can be demanded in a lump sum


22-Aug-2023 (In Family Law)
I have filed a case for domestic violence against my husband who ran away to a foreign country three years back deserting my 8 year old son and me. He earns three lakh per month there but does not give anything to us. Now they have agreed to settlement. How much maintenance should I ask if I want a lumpsum amount from him.

Ma'am there is no maxima for the lump sum alimony. It depends on the status of the both the parties and the earning of the husband. It is better to negotiate with your husband about the amount and if he is willing, you will be paid the same.

Your husband earns three lakh rupees per month, and your spouse has so much wealth with you, your 8-year-old son is also studying how your life is living, how you live your life, and your husband's property and his salary will be kept in mind. You have to settle yourself

hello, please be clear that there is no set rule as such for demanding the maintenance cost, its always depends on the paying capacity of the person to whom has to pay the same, and its nothing to do with your demand because they are always free to file counter application stating there financial condition. in this condition if you really want to resolve the issue soon try to do settlement out of the court, it will save time and get instant relief.

महोदया आप ने अपनी समस्या में अपनी उम्र का जिक्र नहीं किया है मान लीजिए आप 40वर्ष की हैं और आपकी ज़िंदगी अगर 100साल की है तो 60साल शेष रह गए हैं इस तरह अधिकतम 5000 रुपए की दर से 60 साल तक आपको गुजारा के लिए 3600000 रुपए की मांग करनी चाहिए तथा रहने के लिए आवास के लिए भी मांग कर सकतीं हैं
