(Six Lakhs only) respectively, which is to be handed
over to the appellant/wife in Court on 05.09.2022.
(ii) According to the direction passed by the Hon'ble
Court the respondent/husband is paying the said
amount of 15,00,000/- (fifteen Lakhs only) in favour
of the appellant/wife which, the appellant shall be
entitled to use for the overall expenses towards the
maintenance of the daughter, Kriti Mukherjee.
(iii) In further compliance of the solemn order dated

respondent/husband undertakes to pay a sum of
Rs.3,000/- (three thousand only) per month in favour
of the appellant/wife as monthly maintenance
towards the daughter till she attains majority.
(iv) The appellant/wife shall on the request made by the
respondent/husband disclose the whereabouts of the
daughter in future.
(v) The appellant/wife vouches that there shall be no
future and/or further claim or claims as against the
respondent/husband and/or his family and shall not
file any case or cases, be it civil or criminal with
regard to the matrimonial dispute save and except
the execution of the monthly maintenance amount
payable to the minor daughter till she attains
majority, in accordance with law.
Two pay orders aggregating to a sum of Rs.9,00,000/- are
handed over to Ms. Sumitra Das, learned advocate-on-record for
the appellant towards permanent alimony in Court today.
However, the said two demand drafts shall not be encashed till the
application for mutual divorce is disposed of by the learned
District Judge.
The parties are personally present before us. The parties
have agreed to file an application for mutual divorce under
Section 13B of the Hindu Marriage Act, 1955 in course of this
week before the learned District Judge. In the event the said
application is filed, we would request the learned District Judge to
dispose of the said application as expeditiously as possible in
order to enable the parties to produce the decree before the
adjourned date, as we are of the opinion that cooling off period of
six months is not required due to irretrievable break down of
marriage between the parties and the same is permitted in view of
the judgment of the Hon'ble Supreme Court in Amardeep Singh
vs. Harveen Kaur reported in AIR 2017 SC 4417 read with
paragraph 27 of Amit Kumar vs. Suman Beniwal reported in
2021 SCC OnLine 1270.
The affidavits filed by the parties are taken on records.
The matter stands adjourned till 28th November, 2022
(Siddhartha Roy Chowdhury, J.) (Soumen Sen, J.)
