If he can prove the intention and passing of consideration, the husband can file a suit alleging that it was benami transaction and he remain the owner of the property.
As far as the properties purchased by the husband in the name of wife, the plea of benami is maintainable but it has to be proved with strong evidence.

Yes. A husband can succeed against his wife in getting his assets which were purchased in the name of wife provided he establishes this fact by leading cogent evidence.
