The Hon'ble Court observed in paragraph 16 that Apex Court placed reliance on a earlier judgment in Dr. Kulbhushan Kumar vs Raj Kumari & another in 1970 3 SCC 129, wherein it was held that 25% of the husband's net salary could be just and proper to be awarded as maintenance to the respondent wife.

In the rejoinder affidavit dated 02.12.2024 the revisionist has stated that during the course of time, salary has increased and now his net salary is Rs.47,016/-, but has stated even then the amount of maintenance awarded against the revisionist is exorbitant.
