Lawyers are available now to answer your questions.
No, this is your self acquired property and you are free to put it to any use as per your wish.
The court cannot make any direct order as regards to this property or put fetters on your right to enjoy the same. During your lifetime, you can do anything with this property, including selling it off.
It's just that since this property is one of your assets, the court will take it into consideration while awarding the monetary benefits to your wife and son.
You have not mentioned employment status of your wife.
If she's earning well, she cannot claim maintenance. Alimony will come into question when divorce is seeked.
Yes, there could be a claim for maintenance for kid. However, under any circumstances nobody can claim share in your self-acquired property
- A Hindu wife has right to claim maintenance/Alimony from the husband, in case of divorce. She has NO right to claim property of the husband either self-acquired or inherited.
- Further Wife can seek not only right to monthly maintenance against the husband but even enforce her right to residence against him under the Protection of women from domestic violence Act,2005.
Hence, as per law of the land , your wife has right for monthly maintenance, permanent alimony and maintenance and right to residence against her living husband, but she has no right to claim any share in your properties during your lifetime.
- No, court will not order the property in question to your wife as alimony after considering custody of kids.
But they have residence right from you as per law including maintenance.
Therefore in the event of divorce , the condition will be monetary and not share in your property.
Further , it depend upon the ground of divorce as well .How you are going to give her divorce i.e. by way of mutual divorce or after filing a divorce case in the family court .
Yes, the wife can make a claim on the self-acquired property of the husband but the Court will take into consideration a lot many things. You need to contest the case well and prove that she is capable of maintaining herself. The court cannot direct you to leave your apartment to your wife and kid alone. You need to give it some time and can file a case seeking the custody and guardianship of the child as well.
No court can't grant like that husband property.
The Hindu Succession Act, 1956 provides for one share of the self acquired property of the husband to the wife as his widow that is after his death not during his lifetime and this too with a condition that the Hindu husband dies intestate that is without leaving a Will.
The court can ask you to pay for residence of wife and kid it will not direct you to let them.reside in your flat for certain age. The maintenance amount and amount for rent can be asked to be payed.
1) your son has no share in your self acquired property during your lifetime
2) your wife is entitled to maintenance for herself and kid
3) your wife can pending divorce seek right to stay in her matrimonial home
Dear Sir,
Nothing to worry Court never insist you to give your newly constructed flat either to your wife or daughter. You may peacefully reside in the said flat provided you make some liquidated alimony to be paid to your wife and monthly maintenance to your daughter if possible create an endowment in the name of girl so that she can receive monthly maintenance regularly. More discussions in person.

Hi,
The court will consider the social and economic factors in this case and allow maintenance to the wife and child during the pendency of the case.
As soon as the divorce is decided the maintenance for the child will be given for his upbringing.
You may claim the custody of the child when he is 5 years of age and in the mean time you need to pray the court to allow you to transfer the maintenance amount of child to a separate account to be used for child only.
Hello,
Yes for the welfare of the child the court on the request of the mother may pass such order, also the son theough mother claim the residential rights on your property.
Regards
If it is shared household after marriage, your wife will have permanent claim over the property and can be charged for future maintenance even if divorced. Your child is equally entitled to the share of the property.
Hi,
It all depends on the kind of divorce granted by court. If the divorce is granted on mutual consent, the terms and condition would be decided by you and your wife. In other situation, it depends on your contentions.
Court cannot pass any such order which do not have any provision in law.
Since there is no provision in law to claim any share by your wife even on behalf of the child as a right, you need not be worried about it.
She can claim residential rights so long as she remains your legally wedded wife.
The child custody will depend on how you both successfully fight each other in court.
In any case your wife is entitle for maintenance and alimony unless if she is not working.
In case of divorce she can claim for maintenance and alimony, if you fails to pay she can bring attachment on the flat owned by you.
