The husband was directed to pay ₹1.25 lakh monthly maintenance towards his estranged wife and a minor daughter. His plea against the maintenance order was earlier rejected by the Delhi High Court. Another plea of the wife, seeking a revision of the maintenance, was also dismissed by the High Court.
It came on record that the wife had filed a contempt petition in the High Court alleging that she was not being paid the monthly maintenance as directed. She claimed outstanding arrears of ₹50 lakh, while the husband said it was around ₹40 lakh.
For the execution of payment of maintenance, the trial court on July 16, 2021, refused to entertain his application seeking recall of its direction for issuance of warrants for attachment of his properties.
