It is not maintainable as per section 468 of CRPCit would be barred by limitation . it ought to have been filed within one year of the incident In view of the provisions of Section 468 Cr.P.C., that the complaint could be filed only within a period of one year from the date of the incident seem to be preponderous in view of the provisions of Sections 28 and 32 of the Act 2005 read with Rule 15(6) of The Protection of Women from Domestic Violence Rules, 2006 which make the provisions of Cr.P.C. For further information contact.

This should dismiss at first instance, you should change the summoning order.
Or should file quashing petition in High Court.
