There is no specific limit on the amount of maintenance that a magistrate can award under Section 125 of the Hindu Marriage Act. The magistrate will consider a number of factors when determining the amount of maintenance, including the income of the husband, the needs of the wife, and the standard of living of the parties during the marriage.
