Once after your wife goes for a remarriage her maintenance would be stopped

@Hungryheart, (An anonymous queriest)

Donot worry about your friend and his properties.

Your friend's wife has no right in either of the properties but may be granted maintenance as per your friend's status and standard of living.

Advise your friend to be proactive to save his married life,  property and consult/engage a local prudent lawyer for proper guidance and proceeding.

Thank you Kapil Sir, Sarvanan Sir and Dr. Vashista. 

I have told my friend that his properties are safe. He is happy. He is mostly concerned about his mother's properties since they are worth much more than the house(apartment) he bought recently. 

Regarding maintanence, he said his wife earns more than him.

I asked this question because he is my close friend for a long time. He got married just recently and seeing him in a troubled situation made me sad. He was scared of India's gender biased laws. 

Thank you all.

Wish UR friend the best of luck,nothing more to add than those mentioned by the above legal experts.

Can someone say what will happen to the following properties?

--Nothing will happen to your properties.  She cannot claim the property. She can claim only maintenance. But since she is working, you are not liable to pay even the maintenance. But you to show the court her job details.

What about the monthly maintanence? 

--Answered above

Does he have to give monthly maintanence even after his wife's remarriage?

--No, once she get divorce from you, till her remmariage you have to pay maintenance.  But since she is working, no need to pay maintenance.  But keeping vengeance on you she can file 498a and dowry cases against you.  Be ready for that and when she files the same, you contact me to my email. I will explain you how to tackle that problem.

1.  Nothing will happen to all the properties.

2.  Since she is employed and earning, she is not entitled to claim maintenance.

3.  No.
