Calcutta High Court’s big decision, Mohammed Shami will have to give ₹ 1.30 lakh to wife-daughter every month

The Calcutta High Court has given an important verdict in the legal dispute between Indian cricket team fast bowler Mohammed Shami and his wife Haseen Jahan. The court has justified the decision of the lower court, under which Shami will have to pay ₹ 1.30 lakh every month for the maintenance of his wife Haseen Jahan and his daughter.

This decision has come on the petition of Haseen Jahan, in which he demanded to increase the amount of alimony. Let us tell you that in early 2023, a lower court ordered that Shami would give ₹ 50,000 to his wife and ₹ 80,000 per month for raising his daughter, which is a total of ₹ 1.30 lakh.

Haseen Jahan was not happy with this decision. He appealed to the High Court, describing this amount as very low. Their demand was that alimony should be increased to ₹ 10 lakh per month, of which ₹ 7 lakhs should be for them and ₹ 3 lakh for their daughter.

However, the Calcutta High Court rejected his demand. The court admitted that the amount of ₹ 1.30 lakh fixed by the lower court is “justified and appropriate” and there is no need to intervene.

During the hearing of the case, Shami’s lawyer argued that his income had declined, while Haseen Jahan’s lawyer cited Shami’s tax return, saying that his annual income is more than ₹ 7 crores and hence he can give more alimony.

After hearing the arguments of both sides, the High Court upheld the decision of the lower court. After this decision, it has become clear that Mohammed Shami will have to legally pay ₹ 1.30 lakh every month.
