Reading: We’ve been married for 7 years now, and our 4-year-old child is the light of our lives. Sadly, my husband and I have grown apart. Our values and lifestyle are very different, leading to frequent arguments, sometimes even physical ones. I’m considering divorce but worried about our child’s future. We live together in a house we own jointly and are also paying off a loan together. How will the house and the loan be divided if we separate?

Under Indian law, the joint property will be divided equally between you and your husband upon divorce. The loan taken jointly will be divided proportionally, considering your individual contributions. However, the court can consider factors like your child’s welfare and your individual financial situations when making the final decision.
