Is you both were reciding together from 2007 to 2014 ?
If not then take ground of deseration
Also if some other ground is there you mention all of them
No problem of limitations or res judicata will be there

Res judicata is only in a case where the subject matter has already been decided rather to be specific it has already been adjudicated.
You have been acquitted in 498A case
And even today u belong to a legal matrimony. Considering that u r still a husband and she is still Ur wife.
U can file for divorce and no need to worry, but I hope u have a case on merits also.
Have a good day
