All gold given to her during marriage is her absolute property being Stri-dhan.

Gold is with her or not, once gifted by her inlaws that becomes the property of the bride. However, if she has put a false case about the gold being with her husband or in-laws, none else other than her husband or in-laws can point out towards the proof of her taking with her.

but what will happen to the gold given by bride's father to the groom. Is that again Stri-dhan? The gold chain and engagement ring given to me is with her.

The ornaments given to groom do not come within the definition of gift rather the formula for the bride is otherwise. This is a controversy in law.

keeping such gold with you is criminal offence.

It is her gold now and you have to forget the same.

Gold is not with me, even the gold chain and engagement ring i got is with her. But still she gave a false alligation that gold is with me. Now its tough for me to prove that.

Dear Abhisek
it is a matter of Trial before the court and not a matter of merely consultation, it is better for you to consult with a lawyer in your area with all you documents.
