No, you should not file divorce now. It will be a wrong step and she will have an advantage for her case. You have to better contest the case she filed and prove her guilty and if you both decide to separate then divorce will be allowed or you both can mutually sort out your problems and file mutual consent divorce that would be much better.

Dear,

You can file for divorce now under cruelty ground stating the fact of her instituting false 498A and 307 IPC against you and other instances of cruelty you were subjected to by your wife. This is a right step given the fact that no normal husband would like to continue matrimonial relationship with his wife after facing such cases from his wife. Another suggestion is to wait till the criminal cases dispose off in your favor and then file for divorce but the criminal cases in question may take longer time to get disposed off. Thus, it's your call either to file for divorce now or after the criminal cases dispose off. Your wife will not have any advantage if you file for divorce.
