High Courts Rule on Permanent Alimony and Divorce in Separate Cases
The Bombay High Court set aside a family court's Rs 10 lakh permanent alimony award to a wife, citing lack of evidence on the husband's income and ordered a fresh hearing considering both parties' finances, while maintaining Rs 10,000 monthly child maintenance. Separately, the Karnataka High Court upheld a divorce and directed the husband to pay Rs 25 lakh permanent alimony in five instalments, noting the marriage was irreparably broken and highlighting caste-related tensions raised by the wife.
