yes you can inspect the records at supreme court the same has been given at chapter 9 of the practice and procedure hand book , for you convenience i am reproducing the the relevant portion
"Inspection: A party to any case, appeal or matters who has appeared as well as his advocate is entitled to search or inspect all pleadings, documents or record of his case on payment of prescribed Court Fee of Rs. 3/-. Search or inspection is to be carried out in the presence of an officer of the Court after 24 hours notice in writing to the parties who have appeared. The Court, on the application of a person who is not a party to the case, appeal or matter, may allow him such search or inspection on good cause being shown for this purpose."
