there is no such rule or law that earning wife has to share the salary at home. it is voluntary adjustment between husband and wife.

he cannot stop you from working. There is no such law on this earth. Nor is it mandatory for you to share it. But as Mr. Pawse had opined that marriage is mutual adjustment between husband and wife. it would all depend how you both adjust with the situation. You make him understand that you are saving for the baby. He would be happy for you to save for the child.

neither he can stop you from working nor he can demand your salary legally. you have an option to approach the court under domestic violence act and seek restraint orders against your husband.

There is no such rule. It totally depends upon you as to how much you share with your husband to run the family.
