APC has it, but cost will be high. Better to contact people who make UPS in your area. I am using Safepower UPS (I think its only in Cochin, Kerala). I get 6 hr backup for 2 PCs. Also, battery and other componetnt prices has been changed (increased) a lot recently, so you will have to spend more ...

My UPS cost was Rs.6000 and Battery 2 numbers - Rs.3850 each. But the prices has been gone high I think, especially the battery cost.

If cost is not a problem, go for APC. They hav Big UPS as well.

There is a APC UPS for home use, 800 VA. Because its for home use taxes are low. The whole thing was available last year for Rs. 8500/- Do check on it.
