The question is whether she is working or not...if she is giving tutions, you cannot prove it in the court...you cannot call the kids coming for tution and make them say the amount they are paying...
She will agree and say thay I dont not charge any money...tution cannot be proved in the court...
You mention all these points in your replies...and see what the court has to say...your representation, in writing and while arguing should be clear and to the point...when order is passed..appleal in the lower appealeate court u.s 29 of the Act and see if the case can be stayed...
Make the case stay in sessions court, till there is a settlement...
The best option - In my opinion is to "loose" you job ( in case you are earning a lot of money) and do someting else...like so business,,etc etc..which she will not know...there is not salary slip available...they will not be able to guess what you are up to...how you are earning..they will be puzzled..
If you earn, as per the DV act, the court will always order some relief...even if she is earning...the lower court will order some interim maintenance...for sure...
If you can prove that she is earning...you will get relief only in the HC...also, HC will ask to pay someting first and then HC will look into the matter..
