Respected Sirs,
My friend and his wife got divorced in the year 2022.
Till divorce date my friend has paid Interim maintenance of
Rs.5000 to his wife eveymonth.
In 2023, his wife filed a Maintenance case u/s 125 crpc.
The case is at final stage (argument is going on) .
My friend is a running the business of textile saree manufacturer
and is aged about 65 years. He underwent an angioplastic surgery (heart)
in 2019 and he is under medicatioins till now. He is not able to do his
business as before. His income also reduced to some extent.
IT returns filed ( Rs. 2 lakh annual income declared ).
Now he has lthe responsibility of looking after his 85 years old
mother and his son who is studying 12th std.
But he has some immovable properties . All the immovable
properties are his self acquired properties.
He has testated all his immovable properties to his Son by way
of registered Will.
NOW THE QUESTION IS:
a) How the court will decide the amount of maintenance to
his wife.
b) whether the self acquired properties will be considered
while fixing the maintenance.
Please clarify.
