Evidence by way of affidavit

Dear experts,

While preparing proof affidavit, 

Can we details facts which are needed based on written statement of opponent (the details I wish to include will not deviate from the crux of information I mentioned in brief my petition, but which essentially detailing now supported by documents)

I have submitted just copies of bank statements, copies of bills of certain expenses when I submitted my assets and liabilities. Now to consider them to be included as exhibits by marking as EX. PW/No 1 etc., including other documents to be considered for evidence in proof affidavit, do I need to include them also in proof affidavit now.

 

Awaiting your valuable guidance

If you want to mark the documents as exhibits from your side then you have to file them along with your proof affidavit.

If you would like to add new documents then you may have to file a petitioner seeking permission of court to receive additional documents.

You can discuss with your advocate and proceed as suggested

Apart from documents mentioned in written statement, if I have a new document which was missed earlier, can it be included in proof affidavit without getting permission or still I need to get permission sir

No, you can't, you have to seek permission from court under order 8 rule 1 A(3) CPC.for submitting new documents as proof.
