CRP No. 6431 of 2026
of 2025 in HMOP No. 115 of 2022 on the file of the Subordinate Judge, Mettur, Salem District, wherein the Court below based on the application filed by the respondent under Section 24 of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955, fixed the interim maintenance of Rs.10,000/- payable by the petitioner to the respondent.
2. Heard the learned counsel for the petitioner and carefully perused the materials available on record and this Court also carefully went through the order passed by the Court below.
3. The main ground raised on the side of the petitioner is that the respondent is earning a sum of Rs.30,000/- per month as a Doctor and since she is able to maintain herself well, the Court below ought not to have ordered the payment of any maintenance.
4. In the considered view of this Court, the Court below has assigned proper reasons for fixing the maintenance amount at Rs.10,000/-. The maintenance amount fixed by the Court below is not exorbitant and it is very reasonable. Therefore, this Court is not inclined to exercise its jurisdiction under Article 227 of the Constitution of India to interfere with the order passed by the Court below.
