I am Hindu girl married to Muslim guy .he already had a wife who is divorce of another guy.
My husband never pay me for expenses I want per month 50% of his salary share
A.Dear Madam,
You can get maintenance but not 50% but only 25% of his salary as per following calculation formula prescribed by Supreme Court.
=========================================================================
HOW TO CALCULATE ALIMONY
Dear Madam,
My answers as follows.
1)what is the max alimony I can claim from him?
Ans: The quantum of maintence must be based of SC judgment which says 25% of salary must be maintenance. Thus it must be calculated as follows
Salary Rs.2 lakhs per month
25% comes to Rs.50,000 multiplied by 12 Months = Rs.6 lakhs per year.
If you live for another 20 years it comes to Rs.6 lakhs multiplied by 20 = Rs. 1crore 20 lakhs.
You get total compensation of Rs.1 Crore Rs.20 lakhs.
2)can I ask for a property?
Ans: You have no right over property but its notional income may be added to the salary .
Thanks.

A.Firstly, please tell us whether your marriage was performed under the Special Mariage Act and whether you have a vaild marriage certificate? Or did any of you convert to the other's religion? Furhter 50% may be a huge amount. The maintenance that will be ordered will depend on a number of factors.
