Section 24 of hma

They are the arrears.  Show your bonafides and start paying some amount of the arrears every month.  You can always explain to the Court that you are not in a position to pay the 3,00,000/- up front.  The Court has to consider the same. 

As I am not an advocate, advocates should correct me if I am wrong. Court hurries through the process of interim maintenance. Unless husband drags it. Husband usually thinks that by delaying the IA, he is at an advantage. It is rarely so. If a bigger amount is sanctioned unfortunately,  he has to struggle. What prevented you from submitting your income proof  at the earliest. If a big amount is sanctioned, you have to clear 50% of the arrears before doing anything. Even my lawyer said " kheenchnae ka hai?" Never drag the case from your side if you are not at  fault. Fighting in the start is like prevention. Appealing is like trying to cure.
