Your father in law cannot ask for your bank statements 

2) you are at liberty to give gifts to your parents 

3) you don’t have to send money to your in laws 

1. Your father-in-law has no legal right to dictate terms to you regarding your personal finances.

2. Whatever money you are earning is from your hard work and it's your self earned money and for which , no one will have any right, including your husband.

3. It's upto you to send money to your parents and your father-in-law has no right to prevent it.

4.  Any daughter-in-law is expected to take care of her in-laws, but that does not mean that she has to disclose her income and expenditure. A daughter-in-law may help her in-laws financially but the in-laws can't claim it as a matter of right.

Being a adult person you have every right to give your earnings to anyone you so choose and no one can stop you from this.  Therefore ignore the demand of your father in law.  

So let them think in their own way and you act on your own. 

You’re not obliged to part away with the details that he has been asking you. No Indian law mandates you to part with the info he’s asking.

You are free to exercise your free will in this matter and take a call. 

Your FIL do not have rights on your earnings, nor your husband. You have full rights to send money to your parents and there is law where it tells daughter also has to take care of their parents.

1. Legally you are NOT bound to share or inform or provide ANY details about your own earnings to ANYBODY (includes FIL's, Husband, whoseover.... ) and neither will this create any futuristic legal issues.

2. You are advised to "one time" nicely & firmly inform your "orthodox" FIL's that you are not interested in sharing or informing or providing any details about your own personal income. Forcing you to do so would constitute various criminal offences at the hands of FIL's

Hi, The money you have earning is the self acquired and no one has right to claim the same and you can spend the same as per your wishes and even your husband has no right to claim the same.  So you can spend your amount as per your wishes.

- As per the Supreme Court, A wife has complete ownership rights over all her Streedhan, the gifts and money given to her before and after marriage. The denial of Streedhan to the wife makes the husband and in-laws liable for criminal charges. 

- Further, a husband cannot claim any right over the earnings of his wife and also he cannot inherit any share in the property of his wife during her life time.

- Further , it is the duty of your husband to maintain you even you are a working lady .

- Hence, you can refuse for the same legally , and it also amounts to cruelty by the husband and his family members. for which you are free to file cases against them . 

Neither your father in law nor your husband has any rights to know about your salary income details nor they can demand you to pay the same every month.

It is illegal and an  act of domestic violence also.

You can spend your salary income on anyone of your choice including your  own parents.

Nobody has any rights to prevent you from sending money even recurrently to your parents. 

As a courtesy sake you may share the details with your husband and not beyond him to anyone and you cannot be pressurised to reveal the details by your father in law. 

You can politely refuse to divulge the details sought by him stating that you are not bound by his dictates. 

Dear Ma'am,

1. It is not legal to threaten for bank statements. You are not under any obligation to disclose your bank details to anyone including your spouse. 

2. According to laws, you can gift your self earned money to anyone you wish to. There is no problem if you are gifting something to your parents. 

Try to settle this matter amicably after involving your husband. Don't let these trivial issues affect your relationship and mental peace.

Best wishes. 

A woman's earning is totally her business and nobody has a right to ask even a penny. Not even her husband according to Indian laws. 

Therefore don't bother urself wih such issues. 

U have total right on what u earn , where u spend and on whom u spend. Nobody can question nor demand. 

Your money and earnings are yours and nobody can question the way you spend it. He cannot compel you to pay to his son or not give your parents.
