What nonsense, domestic violence complaint is not filled under section 498a IPC, this complaint is filled under the Protection of the Women from Domestic Violence Act, 2005. Under this Act the complainant woman living in domestic relationship can seek protection order against the respondents who committed domestic violence against her, she can seek financial compensations and damages caused to her by the acts of domestic violence, if she is unemployed and has no source of income can seek maintenance and claim her right to residence from the respondents. She can get injunction order against them so that they won't be able to throw her out of the house where she's living in domestic relationship with them.
Section 498a IPC is for cruelty inflicted by the husband and in-laws on the wife not cruelty inflicted by parents on their daughter. Moreover there is only punishment in this law no financial compensation for the victim.
