Legal Question in Family Law in India

Sir/Mam

My wife has filed the case of DV act in which she claims that she is unemployed and caring for my 2yr child and my husband is a well settled businessman having my own shop. so she needs maintenance of Rs 40k per month.

but i have proofs that she is earning Rs 8000 per month and i'm doing the job of Rs 3000 per month. and i do not posses any property from the day i was born.

does still i have to pay the maintenance ??

can i file any other case for giving wrong information basically i want to pressurize her for mutual divorce for which she is asking a handsome amount which is not possible for me . She wants that my father should sell his property for amount of mutual divorce

Will still

If what you are saying is true then you have to substantiate with documentary proof etc. You can file an application u/s 24 of HM Act for maintenance from your wife as well to prove that she is earning more than you .
