Yes, EMI payments are considered as deductions from income.
Court can grant maintenance upto 5% income of the husband.

there is in fact no fixed criteria for granting maintenance to wife.
the social status of the applicant is also considered.
there is no fixed percentage for this purpose, its a larger issue and is decided according to facts and circumstances of each case.

There is no fixed formula for granting interim maintenance. Though the judges considered the income of hubby from all sources. The judges considers the loan dedution from income subjected to income proved by applicant.
