How long husband might have to pay alimony to wife if both earning?
3 years ago
Marriage lasted only for 40 days. Husband found that he has been cheated by wife's side by hiding her lover affair before and after marriage and subsequently elders got involved and wife left matrimonial home. Wife later confessed her affair through whatsapp messages and asked husband to forgive but husband is not willing to take her back and has filed for Annulment on fraud.
Wife earns 45k (husband will be able to prove this) and husband earns 85k INR per month. No Kids. Both B-Tech graduates, with good future growth possibilities working in MNC's and both have elderly parents who are dependant.
What are the possibilities for court to order husband to pay alimony in this case.
And if he has to pay , how much per month and for how long ? Will he have to pay for life long.
Woman who is working and has sufficient means to maintain herself will not be allowed any maintenance by the court during divorce proceedings or even after the completion of the proceedings. However if the woman’s income is not sufficient for her maintenance she may be allowed nominal amount by the court. The genuine requirements of the woman within the reasonable limits will only be fulfilled by the court’s order for her maintenance.

The court will order maintenance as is just and fair.
Moreover, one can request court for paying complete alimony at the same time itself.

2. The amount of the alimony is decide by court which is just and proper.
3. You have to pay untill she married someone else or you can settel the amount for one time payment

why court will order husband to pay.
whatsapp messages can be very weak evidence if it was not properly happened and then case can backfire.
