Yes DV , 498A case be filed at any point of time.
The variety of reliefs permissible under this Act makes it a case of continuing wrong.
These case are regularly filed even after several years of leaving matrimonial home.

There is no legal bar to file DV case after 498A case as relief in both cases is diferent.
