https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=286952 A Hindu wife's enforceable right to maintenance from her husband's property is protected under Section 39 of the Transfer of Property Act, even where the right is not a strict charge until crystallised. The wife's maintenance claim is linked to the husband's personal obligation and her subordinate interest in his property, and it may be met from the profits of self-acquired or ancestral property. Where immoveable property is transferred to a third party with notice of the wife's claim, the transferee takes subject to that right and cannot defeat enforcement by the alienation. en-us Thu, 19 Sep 1957 00:00:00 +0530 Sat, 21 Mar 2020 17:09:00 +0530 TaxTMI RSS Generator https://www.taxtmi.com/caselaws?id=286952 A Hindu wife's enforceable right to maintenance from her husband's property is protected under Section 39 of the Transfer of Property Act, even where the right is not a strict charge until crystallised.
