since you both husband and wife are working with almost same earning of revenue, there will be no maintainance for wife. However, for son, both H& W will have to share the burden equally depending upon the total required expense for the child including his education, clothing, medical and whatever special treatment required. 498 trial has nothing to do with it.

You may make an offer to her, through your lawyer, to meet the entire expense of your son's medical expenses. In order to give seriousness to your offer, a cheque for Rs.one lac may be sent as advance.
