In case of inconsistency, the Maintenance and Welfare of Parents and Senior Citizens Act, 2007:

Section 3 gives the Act overriding effect over inconsistent enactments and instruments within its statutory scope. Competing protective laws must still be interpreted together where possible; S. Vanitha v Deputy Commissioner illustrates that approach for domestic-violence residence rights. A general non-obstante clause does not automatically decide every conflict with a later enactment.
