Legal Question in Family Law in India

If husband wins a matrimonial case, is he still can be asked to pay maintenance or alimony to wife? if husband has good earning and wife is a house wife , can he be ordered by the court to give maintenance to wife and bear legal expenses incurred by wife even after wining the case, just because wife is a house wife?
