There are number of factors for calculation of maintenace to wife u/s 125 Cr PC. Generally the applicant/wife is granted maintenance of same standard as that she was enjoying while staying in her matrimonial home. However, if she is employed/ earning or having earning capacity but not earning she can be denied of maintenance.

Consult your lawyer for proper guidance.
