Hello,
Please challenge the order passed in the DV case on the ground that you two are now living together and she is not having any individual expenditure.

1) You should mentioned all current living status of you with you and file till court that you already following rules of RCR with her so court may grant her case dismiss.
Wife has no rights to stay in self acquired property of your parents
Pay her Rs 5000 a month for her maintenance
Hi, when all her expenses are being taken care of her demand of maintanace is unjustified .. You should contest the case accordingly
There is nothing wrong in living together while there is a pending case in court with respect to matrimonial dispute.
In fact this will be an advantageous situation to you to express before court that since both are living together hence the cae filed by her do not carry much importance and she may be directed to withdraw the case.
If she wants monthly maintenance then you may give it to her reasonably, there is nothing wrong in it.
The place where reside is called the matrimonial home and not the place where your parents live.
If she has filed the maintenance case, then you may agree to her demand to some extent out of court and ask her to withdraw the entire case.
Living together is the advantageous situation to you and can inform the court about this.
The court may dispose her maintenance claim accordingly.
Hindu Maintenance Act: The Act says a husband is liable to maintain his wife, and if wife files a case claiming for maintenance, the husband has to declare his income; which means if a wife hires maintenance lawyer and files a case against her husband, the husband shall be instructed by the procedure to declare his income before the court.
but in your case your wife is living with you. as per hindu maintenance act you are not liable to pay maintenance to her.
The minimum maintenance will be decided on the basis of the ITR that you file.
The same depends on the court as to how much maintenance is granted.
regards
1. Maintenance can be granted to wife even when spouses are living under the same roof and sharing the same bed.
2. Physical separation is not a condition precedent to the grant of maintenance.
3. Maintenance has to be computed by the court having regard to the liabilities of husband. Ordinarily, it is 1/3rd of his net salary after deducting his liabilities.
You can very well bring this fact before the court. As per living together is concerned, there is no difficulty but certain care should be taken that no fresh incident of violence should be complained again in police station or women cell .
At the time of your bail certain conditions are imposed on you and to take her home is prior condition for granting your bail.
Now she is residing with you and you maintain her overall than she is not entitled for any relief in monetary term as regards your income which is not fixed.
Now you file a petition for the same before the family court and pray to withdraw her maintenance paid by you.
It's crucial to pay her while maintaining her overall.
You got decree and you set free to pay more.
Living with her is in your favour while demanding for maintenance by her is taken as a cruelty ground, and you always on safe mode.
No worries just file a petition, you will win.
Hi,
If she is staying with you and you are taking the responsibilities no maintenance can be claimed and granted to her.
