The amount of maintenance you can receive from your husband in India depends on several factors, including his income, your needs, and the specific circumstances of your case. The courts will consider factors like your age, health, and ability to earn an income when determining the appropriate amount.

It’s been ten years since my divorce, and I have full custody of my 15-year-old son. The divorce decree states my ex should fully support him, but he often falls behind on payments.

My wife has filed for divorce under the Hindu Marriage Act, citing cruelty. She’s asking for a one-time alimony of ₹45,000 and monthly payments of ₹15,000.

Even though she earns ₹6,000 per month, will I still be obligated to pay alimony? I need advice from legal experts.
