Is husband liable for debt of wife

Hello Viney,

Following is my personal opinion based out of logical facts from your statement,

1. From the above statement it is clear that the loan was taken as a soul borrower and it was not a joint loan

2. Hence, the ECS or Bank of Records submitted to the lender would be an account which was primarily held by the borrower and not the spouse whom she married later on

3. Which means that, the spouse was added to the account as a secondary operator (either or/for)

4. Which means that, the spouse when depositing money on the account is with the inherent understanding that the money and her obligations on the account is his too

This means that yes, the lender can deduct money from the account even if it was deposited by the borrowers husband/spouse

Lender will be interested in recovering his money ......he is not concerned with technicalities and he cannot be blamed
