File for divorce on grounds of mental cruelty 

2) wife abusing husband amounts to mental cruelty 

3) court woukd direct you to pay around Rs 6000 a month as maintenance to wife 

4) in alternative pay lumpsum amount of Rs 6 lakhs or so 

Dear Sir,

You can file divorce on the ground of cruelty. Before court you have to prove that she is a educated and having earning capacity.  Then only the court will decide issue.

Instead of giving regular maintenance, it may be possible to make a one time settlement in which the guy gives a lump sum amount to the wife. Often, the lawyers of both sides encourage the women to demand astronomical amounts as alimony. CAW (Crime Against Women) cells often coerce the man and his family as well. Sources tell, there are parties in this whole extortion who get their shares. One of our aims should be to bypass the crooks while negotiating these amounts.

1)what is the max alimony I can give her?

Ans: The quantum of maintenance must be based of SC judgment which says 25% of salary must be maintenance. Thus it must be calculated as follows

Salary Rs.2 lakhs per month

25% comes to Rs.50,000 multiplied by 12 Months = Rs.6 lakhs  per year.

You would have to pay her maintenance if you divorce her. Also a lump sum amount is also to be paid as per your economic capacity ie alimony the court will look into your savings and property in order to decide how much you have to pay.

Regards. 

She can earn but she is not employed hence she is entitled to monthly maintenance to the extent that she is able to prove your income.

if the situation is intolerable you may file a contested divorce case.
