Eduardo,
It might be difficult to find this information. However there are a few 
possible proxy sources, the parliamentary website of the central government has 
a day to day log of proceedings, and many state assembly websites also have a 
similar website. While it’s not possible to find individual votes, you can find 
two things:
1. Opposition opinion : This will tell you each parties position regarding the 
bill.
2. Members present on the day of the vote : The anti- defection bill makes it 
impossible for people to vote outside party whip. So if a whip has been issued 
(which in most cases will be true), you can be 100% sure that all members 
present voted along party lines. 

You can cross reference these two things and get the data you need. 

Hope this helps,
