Krishan Lal .....................Respondent Coram: Hon'ble Mr.Justice Jaswant Singh Present: Mr.Achint Gupta,Advocate for the petitioners Mr.PKS Phoolka,Advocate for the respondent. Jaswant Singh.J.(Oral) CM No.10816-CII/2011 is allowed and salary certificate of respondent is taken on record. CR No.3152/2010. Petitioners (wife and children) have filed the instant revision petition under Article 227 of the Constitution assailing the order dated 7.9.2009 (P1) whereby interim maintenance at the rate of Rs.2500/- was granted to the petitioner wife while the minor son and daughter aged 7 years and 12 years were granted interim maintenance @ Rs.1500/- each per month. It was pleaded in the petition that the petitioner no.1 is household lady with no source of income whereas petitioners no. 2 and 3 (minor children) are school going and that the maintenance awarded CR No.3152/2010 2 was too meager to maintain the petitioners properly. Vide order dated 1.3.2011 this Court had directed the respondent husband to place on record his salary certificate. The salary certificate has been produced as Annexure P1 which is taken on record. As per said salary certificate the gross salary of the petitioner is Rs.30,175/- after deducting a sum of Rs.5030/-, towards GPF, GIS and Income Tax, his net carry home salary is Rs.25,152/-. In view of the monthly income of the petitioner this Court is of the opinion, that the interim maintenance granted by the learned trial court is on lower side and hence liable to be enhanced. Accordingly, present revision petition is allowed and the impugned order dated 7.9.2009 is modified to the extent that the petitioner no.1-wife shall be entitled to monthly interim maintenance @ Rs.3000/- whereas the two minor school going children-petitioner nos. 2 and 3, who are aged 7 and 12 years respectively, would be entitled to monthly interim maintenance @ Rs.3000/- each per month. The aforesaid enhanced interim maintenance will be payable from the date of filing of the revision petition. Revision petition stands disposed of in the above terms. 26.04.2011 (Jaswant Singh) joshi Judge
