A.Dear Client,
The Court looks into a number of factors in cases of providing alimony and maintenance.
If she belongs from a financially sound family , employed and educated enough to earn her own living , in such cases chances are less that you will be asked to provide her maintenance and alimony.
Thanks.

A.Dear Client,
The court looks into the following aspects before deciding the quantum of alimony or maintenance to be paid. They are as follows:

1. Income of the husband & wife
2. Employment status of husband & wife
3. Living standard of husband & wife
4. Mandatory expenses of husband & wife
5. Properties of both husband & wife
6. Financial status of husband & wife
7. Education of husband & wife
8. Children and their responsibilities
9. Diseases [if any], both curable and prolonging etc.
However, the above list is not exhaustive and there are other various factors which are considered by the court in deciding the same.
Thanks
