See if as per your query you want a divorce from her, now you want to file a contested case of divorce, it will be better if you go for it.

She can file a case for maintenance under 125 crpc, Complaint in CAW cell, Domestic violence case

It's your choice if you don't wants to go for second motion and wants to contest divorce case..Your wife can ask for simple maintenance, or can file Domestic Violence wherein she can ask for compensation, maintenance & residence rights..
She also can file a criminal case regarding cruelty, dowry demand and criminal breach of trust. and finally she can file divorce case.
