Legal Question in Family Law in India
one time alimony
Got married under HMA.I want to divorce my wife.I am working abroad for last 3 years.My query is if in divorce case my wife asked for one time alimony rather than monthy will the amount be decided by the court or court has no power to grant one time alimony?
My lawyer said that court cannot grant one time alimony can only grant monthly alimony.Is it true?

Re: one time alimony
the court has power to grant one time alimony and it is the court that has power even to decide the quantum of alimony under section 25 of HMA. the court decides the alimony on the basis of financial status of both the parties and other facts and circumstances.
