RTI does not cover the private entities and hence the company will not give information to her under the RTI act.

Your wife has no right to get details of your salary. Your employer can not share it with anybody unless ordered by competent authority.

Dear Sir,

Wife of govt employee can find information under RTI act but private companies doesn't come under RTI regime so they are not obliged for RTI reply. You may follow other legal procedures to find income data.

NO. Private Organization doesn’t come under ambit of the RTI Act. You can get information under RTI Act, 2005 only from public authorities.

See the wife can file an application for court if maintenance application is pending asking your salary details on affidavit.

Though the company may refuse her RTI citing third party information and they can deny it.

Dear sir 

Normally under RTI Provisions she cannot get details of your salary . But if her advocate is intelligent he may file application under section 91 of CRPC or under order 16 Rule 6 of CPC and get a direction to your employer to submit all the details which she may be in need of .

 - The Central Information Commission passed the judgment that income & property details , investments, and assests can be accessed by the spouse under the Right to Information Act.

- But private companies doesn't come under RTI , so they are not obliged for RTI reply. 

- But, your wife can move an application before the court for direction to you, to produce the salary details before the court , or may summon the official of your company for the same. 

- As per law, a wife is entitled to one third of her husbands income , but the income will be calculated after deducting all the burdens of husband , like emi, parents care , household expenditure etc.

Private companies are not bound by RTI act, hence the request for the information through RTI act may not be entertained by the private company.

If at all she would like to get your salary income details from your company she has o file a petition under section 311 cr.p.c before the trial court seeking to direct yor employer to produce the salary income details before court.
