Is working wife entitled for maintenance

Hello all, Is working wife entitled for interim maintenance even if she is earning 50000 pm which is sufficient for sustainment but instead she is asking more to maintain same status which husbands has because he earns many times more? I am looking for some Delhi high court or supreme court judgements which can be referred.

Even though she earns sufficiently, if she is not able to live the same comfortable life which she had lived once when she was her husband the court will order maintenance

@amit - you need to specify the income of the husband as well as the number of children so as to enable us to answer better
