If you are not intending to live with your wife anymore, you may file for divorce or if the intention is to continue the marital relations, then it is advisable to file a section 9 application for restitution of conjugal rights.
There is as such no law under which you could get the compensation for the complaint filed by your wife however if you are sure that your wife with the intention to defame you, purposefully made a false complaint, you can make a request to the police officer who investigated your case to proceed against your wife u/s 182 IPC which relates to False information, with intent to cause public servant to use his lawful power to the injury of another person.
