if your budget permits opt for APC 650VA @ ~3k - this a smart UPS with software control - if yu need more backup time then 1KVA APC UPS will cost you ~4.8k - for a cheaper solution you can also try Luminous 1KVA UPS @ ~4k.

I need a backup time of 3 to 5 minutes(for shutting down the system).Also i did a power consumption calculation using a psu calculator and found the recommended PSU wattage to be 422W.So will i get 3 minutes back up with APC 600 VA?

^^ for 3 min backup 600VA is OK but for 5 min get the 650VA.

@ jainmj - get the BR1100CI-IN.
