Within 24 hours of FIR lodging a copy thereof is sent to competent magistrate. you can apply for certified copy there.

If case is filed against you copies will be given if not and you are called for questioning still copies will be given so keep quite.

As only the complaint has been sent to polie for investigation and lodging of FIR, there is no need of preparing fro ny response so no need for copy of complaint at this juncture.
Professionally also, I think you should not make reply or response against any allegation because your lawyer may have to take some other line of action while defending you. So be happy at this juncture.
