the quantum of maintenance is decided as per the income of wife. the husband is not entitled to seek maintenance under this section and it is only wife, children and parents who can resort to this section. for husband, it is sec. 24 of Hindu Marriage Act.

Not only husband, but even parents and children may also seek maintenance u/s 125 Cr. P. C. if they are 'dependent" upon the earning member without having any other independent source of income.
