You should make out a case under DV Act to make even a woman to be prosecuted under the said Act.

NO
No complaint under D V Act could be filed against a woman.
Domestic Violence Act clearly bars the same.
Domest Violence Act clearly provides that no complaint could be filed against a woman under the Domestic Violence Act, 2005.
