Parvin Kumar Jain vs Anju Jain

The Supreme Court upheld the Delhi High Court's order enhancing interim maintenance under Section 24 of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955, from ₹1,15,000 to ₹1,45,000 per month for the wife, affirming that the husband’s increased income warranted such enhancement. The Court clarified that the Family Court retains jurisdiction to modify maintenance orders despite the withdrawal of divorce petitions, and that Section 26 does not preclude maintenance for an adult male child. The appeal by the husband was dismissed, affirming the High Court's decision.
