What the court was looking at
The reported summary does not record the income figures or the length of the marriage, which is common in older reports and in interim orders.
Why this one gets cited
Gujarat HC held able-bodied husband cannot deny maintenance to wife having cancer by claiming closure of business without proof; husband's claim of business closure rejected; 2026.
How it fits the framework
Since Rajnesh v. Neha in 2020, every maintenance order in India is meant to work through the same list of factors: the standard of living the marriage ran at, what the applicant reasonably needs, whether she is qualified and earning, and whether she gave up work for the family. A judgement from 2026 was decided before that list was written down, but the reasoning behind it is the reasoning courts had been applying for decades. There is a fuller account in how maintenance is calculated.
The calculator walks the same factors a magistrate does, then shows you the judgements nearest your facts.

Ranked by court, then by income bracket and marriage length rather than by date, so the comparison is with cases a court would actually treat as similar. Every row links to its own page.
