✅ Yes, you can pay only tuition fees to your wife’s account or Paytm and keep a record.
✅ Send an email or message clearly stating:

"I'm paying tuition fees only, since the bus is not used. Please handle the remaining as needed."

This shows transparency and intent.

Even if they don’t act, this builds a legal record showing your effort.

Final Tip:

If your wife changes the school without your consent and expects you to pay full fees, you can challenge it in family court — especially if it’s unaffordable or done without consulting you.

Let me know if you want a sample email for school or your wife.

Then you can approach court in writing petition against the school for directions in said matter

Deposit in to wife or any relative of her is sufficient. Intimate her about payments keeping record of all payments.

You cannot deposit tution fees in mother account 

You do not have to go behind your wife maintaining bank account elsewhere or closing her own bank account.

if she has closed the bank account then there is no necessity for you to pay the fees to her account, let she face the situation with the school on her own. Why are you so much worried and particular about it when she is not cooperating in this regard.?

There is no reason for you to deposit the amount to her mother's account.

Yes, you can transfer the tuition fees to your mother-in-law’s account if your wife's account is closed, but ensure proper documentation to protect yourself legally.

What to Do?

1. Notify in Writing (Email/WhatsApp):

   • "Since your account is closed and the school ERP does not allow partial payments, I am transferring only the tuition fee to your mother’s account. Please ensure payment to the school."

2. Keep Proof:

   • Save transaction receipts, bank statements, and messages.

3. Legal Validity:

   • Courts recognize actual payments. If she misuses the funds, you have proof of fulfilling your duty.

4. If She Changes the School:

   • Without your consent, you can refuse to pay and legally challenge it.

Would you like a draft email for this?

It’s better you pay it to school directly through cheque with a covering letter 

Ask your wife  to send draft petition of mutual consent divorce 

send email that bus is not being used by your son not to charge you for bus services 

- You should transfer the amount in the account of your wife for record purposes., so that she cannot take plea that you was not paying the tuition fees of the child. 

if you agree for the proposal of mutual consent divorce to be initiated by her, you may ask her to proceed after which you can sign the papers but only after your own lawyer is scrutinising the petition thoroughly to avoid any issues that may arise in future in this regard. 

As far as the school bus fee is concerned there is no necessity for you to waste the money spent on nothing, this non payment of bus fees will not hold you liable to describe you as an irresponsible father. 

Any email hinting at discontinue payments will reflect badly. It will be for recorded. Include all terms you want to incorporate in MCD agreement.

You're welcome — and you're clearly doing your best to act responsibly.

You can do all acts which makes you look responsible father
