Now, they have admitted that the shop is in the name of husband. Hence, you need not to prove that fact by RTI in dvc case. Now, their argument is it is a benami transaction and the shop was purchased by in-laws. The Benami Transactoin (Prohibition) Act, 1988 has been passed and as per Section 4 of the Act, benami transaction is not permissible. Hence, if you quote the above law and above provision, the court will treat the shop's owner is your husband and you will be paid maintenance according to that.

Wish you best of luck.
