The Supreme Court has the discretionary power to decide the case and the Court enjoys the residual power which is decided outside the purview of ordinary law given under Article 136 of the Constitution from any judgment, decree, sentence or order passed or made by any Court or Tribunal of India.
The SLP is governed under the rules mentioned in Order XVI of the Supreme Court Rules 1996 under either which the SLP is filed upon refusing the Certificate of fitness by the High Court or when there is a need to interfere by the Supreme Court to give Justice.

The Limitation period is of 90 days from the date of judgment or decree passed by the High Court. In case where the High Court has refused to grant the certificate against the order of the High Court, the limitation period is 60 days.

Go through Rules XVI of Supreme Court Rules, 1996 first.

The expert Mr. Goyal has correctly guided you especially when you have mentioned that you are a student.
You can be guided only to certain extent and not the you will be spoon fed on each and every issue.
You may have to make your own efforts also so that this practical knowledge will be useful for you in future too when you happen to practice law after completion of studies.

Rajendra K Goyal (Expert) 02 April 2020
Thanks expert T.Kalaiselvan sir for your agreeing.
