Ram,

First the divorce will be decided and then the alimony part. While deciding the alimony, the court will see the current income of the husband, his outgoings, his dependents and then the court will decide the alimony. Sometimes, the court will ask for to give monthly maintenance instead of one time alimony. 

The court will not give more alimony to wife, not beyond your means. You have the option to go to High Court for reduction of alimony if the court awards beyond your means.

Rightly opined by the Expert Mr. Hardik Mehta. Nothing to add.

The court will not accept the heavy demands of wife as alimony because she has to prove the source of income and other aspects justifying her claim.
