You can inspect or launch appium 1.5.3 for IOS10.2, You need Appium 1.6 (Xcode>8), You can follow steps from Setup IOS.
And to inspect elements you can follow: Appium Inspector in IOS10

@Swapan_Chhabra … So do I have to upgrade Appium version to 1.6 and xcode version to 8 since my iOS version is 10.2?

Absolutely buddy otherwise not possible!
You can update appium to latest 1.6.4 and xcode to 8.3.
