When Katragadda Koteswara Rao claimed ₹8,000 monthly income, his wife exposed crores in hidden assets. The AP High Court's 2025 judgment awarded ₹50,000 maintenance and set dual precedents: courts will pierce financial fraud, and daughter shall receive support beyond age 18 until marriage or employment. This landmark case demonstrates how the judiciary protects vulnerable family members from calculated deception and redefines parental accountability in maintenance law.
