If it is mutual divorce then it is both of you who will decide everything.
But if it is contested divorce then court will decide. but though she is also earning hand hence she is not entitle for any maintenance but at the time of divorce, court will grant atleast alimoney.
For detailed consultation, you may send me your detailed documents.

both parties can amicably decide between themselves as it is mutual consent divorce.
