Ancestral property coming from her parents and the part of her share in her husband property ,if the husband dies and not otherwise. The wife can only claim alimony after Divorce and maintenance.

wife only has residence rights in the property owned by husband and after divorce, even loses that right to reside in husband's property as they are presumed dead for each other after dissolution of marriage. after divorce, wife neither has a right in self acquired nor ancestral property of the husband. but the children born out of the marriage have a right in the ancestral property.
