Dear Querist
one year

Devajyoti Barman (Expert) 19 April 2012
There is no time limit for filing complaint under DV Act.
As long as any of the instances of DV is happening it can be filed at any point of time, even for the incident happened prior of coming into this Act.

N.K.Assumi (Expert) 19 April 2012
Yes, agree with Barman.But this timeless for initiating complaint is too much.

Shonee Kapoor (Expert) 19 April 2012
No time limit.

However Inderjit Singh Gujral judgment stated it to be within ONE YEAR from the date of last incident.

Mr Barman is absolutely right.

There is no time limit and even this Act is applicable retrospectively so even past incidents can also be taken under this act.

HI CHANDRASEKHAR JI,
THIS SPECIAL ACT 2005 HAS RETROSPECTIVE EFFECT , SO THERE IS NO TIME LIMIT AS SUCH, NOT ONLY INDERJIT SINGH CASE BUT ALSO SOME OTHER HIGH COURTS DIFFER WITH THE TIME LIMIT.
BUT AT THIS PRESENT STAGE THE WONDERFUL INSTRUMENT FOR EVER CAN FILE D.V. CASE AT ANY POINT OF TIME.
