Divorce

Guest (Querist) 28 April 2011 This query is : Resolved 
I and my wife have agreed to file a mutual divorce petition there is no alimony involved as per terms of the settlement. The draft that the other side lawyer shared says that the suit is valued @ Rs 3,00,000 and says that this is required in a civil suit for payment of court fees/stamp duty. I need to confirm if this is actually required hope this would not make me pay this amount to my wife when the decree is granted.

The other point there is in reliefs they have mentioned relief for granting the Divorce decree and any other thing that the court feels fit. Would it mean I could be made to pay anything or its just a language that needs to be written the lawyer says.

Court fees is indeed required but that is fixed court fees anything between Rs 100- 200/- depending upon the State to State.
In no circumstances it depends on the amount mentioned in the petition.

It seems Arvind and Tom agree with contradictory opinions also, as they stated to agree with all experts. It seems thet they have not seen the opposing views of experts.
