Sanjeev Gupta vs Shalini Gupta

The Supreme Court held that the High Court's enhancement of interim maintenance under Section 24 of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955 was unjustified as it was based on an assumption of the appellant's income without any evidence. The Court emphasized that maintenance should be determined based on material evidence rather than conjecture. Consequently, the appeal was allowed, and the High Court's order was set aside, restoring the original maintenance amount.
