after divorce she can ask for maitenence u/s 125 CRPC.

but its not easy as you think that 2y desertion for divorce.

she will file maintenece meanwhile and your divorce will standstill.

Wife is eligible for maintenance till she re-marries.

 

If you can prove any of the following (list is not exhaustive),little / no alimony to wife.

  1. She is having s*xual relations with others
  2. Working and well qualified
  3. She her self doesnt want to join husband's company
  4. Cruelty

I dont think any court in India will allow any wife to reap the fruits of her wrongul acts and immorality as pointed out by never give up.

Karan,

I disagree with others.  If wife deserts the husband without any reasonable cause and divorce is granted on the said ground, then she is not entitled to maintenance.

Alimony after divorce would depend upon the conduct of the parties too.
