Maintenance should be paid each and every month.  For failure of each month's maintenance, punishment is provided under Cr.P.C.  Ask him to prefer revision or to file a petition under section 127 Cr.P.C. narrating his health and financial condition,

Dear Sun Roy,

For every breach, respondent has to suffer one month imprisonment provided the petitioner makes an application in that regard for every month's due.  But, the petitioner should make an application within one year from the date of becoming the amount due.

For every execution petition, maximum one month jail can be imposed.  But, as the amount will not be realized by sending the husband to jail, wife can file one more fresh execution petition for the same amount and can send husband to jail for one more month.  Till realization of amount, she can file series of execution petitions and send him jail, but for one petition, one month maximum jail is there.  You can resist this jail term, by arguing that it is civil imprisonment and hence, wife has to deposit diet allowance of 30 days in the court for asking the court to send him to jail.
