Need help to understand law - compensation from divorce

I am going thro divorce with my husand based on mutual consent.  He work in a private MNC (software) and i know his company details.  However i do not have his salary proof with me.   I do not work and dont have any income.

The court has ordered interim order to give compensation for minimal amout.  My question is:

1. do i have option to prove his actual salary by approaching his company or any legal way.

2.  If he is going to quote his salary as less, how can i prove his actual earnings.

3.  Can a court order the pvt firm to provide his salary details for such case.

 

Please help me.

You can summon the manager of his company or any superior along with his salary details in the court.

Income tax  returns are public document and you can get acopy of the same quoting your husband pan number and the details of the company where he is working from the incme tax department. If you want to summon an official of the income tax department, you can also do that. This will solve your problem

If you are going for mutual consent try to settle this issue also by consent otherwise if you drag him in court he will also drag matter and "all benefits of consent" will be defied

Prabhakar Ji,

If wife's evidence stage is passed in CRPC 125 and her cross-examination is to be done in next hearing, then also can wife do such notice to husband/his company kind of legal activity? Or she can not do it now as her evidence stage is gone.

Awaiting your expert comment.

Thanks,

PC

Asking to 'produce documents' generally happens before framing of issue, as discovery, but possible at any stage of the proceedings.

 

It's apparently contradicting........Are you sayimg indirectly you do not want to adhere to MCD terms!!

 

Maintenance and alimony are not de facto entitlements of wife, but are decided on merits, in a contested divorce suit.

I do agree with Mr. Ved Parkash.

In a mutual divorce .all the terms and condions for grant of divorce including  the  maintenance and one time alimony have to mutualy decided brfore the court will grant  the divorce and hence there is no requirement for proving the income of husband since the same is required to be decided mutually.
