i think even without being an advocate now I can ask you to rest assured you do not have to pay any maintenance to your wife but you have to share expenses of your child--would not you like to as a father?

1. I see shared by both parents equally 3.5 K pm award in the name of child probably on the making with no maint to wife and one time 4 K as litigation expenses.

However, if you would have invested on some SIP (investment plan) in the name of daughter and the day she along with child left sent money for upkeep of child the outflow would have been lesser. However file for custody and interim visitation of child suit.

why ur wife is living seperatly.. she & ur daughter are not entited to any maintenance jf no reasonable cause for living seperately........and she is earning sufficient to look after daughter....

Ambika (NA)     12 February 2011

you are wrong Abhishek

A father has to share the expenses for his child...

He cant avoid that responsibility whether she is capabel or not capable. Read the above answers and have a relook into yours. Sunstantiate it with a judgement where a father has escaped responsibility of maintaining his child...in this case it would be a shared responsibility because mothertoo  is earning.

please help me court had given order regarding my above mention case

order are : by mentioning thre case in his judgement 1st marriage law journal 2006 (1) 376 titled as alka rama mutrhy vs akella sita laxmi

2. honble supreme court of india reposted in 1997 (2) apex court journal 379 s.c titlead as smt jasbir skaur sehgal vs disst judge dehradun & ors

3 high court shimla in rajni abrol vs adarsh abrol ii 1989 dms 278

that the parents of the child are employed and thus both are obliged to pay maintenance in proportion of thir salaries. so taking into consideration the salaries of the parties which have not been disputed in their respective pleadings, it can be safely held that the pettioner is not entitled for any maintenance pendentelite for herself also for litigation expenses and it is she whio is seeking divorce however she is entitled for maintenance pendentelite for her minor child who is seven years of age at the time of filing of the pettion and is in the custody of the petitioners. both parties are employed and the petitioner has also to contribute for the maintenance pendentelite of the minor child a. though child is in the custody of the pettioner which is hereby affixed at rs 3000/- from the date of filing of the petition and thus the sepondent is hereby directed to pay mainteneance pendentelite under section of 24 of hindu marriage act @rs 3000/-> from the filing of the present petition maintenance  pendentelite to the petitioner. however it is made clear that the order passed in this petition will not have any bearing in the final disposal of the main divorce petetion. the present petition is according disposed of.
