How much does a 1KVA cost? Do you have any suggestions?

DIY FTW!
APC 1 kVA will cost ~5k. Nothing less than 1 kVA will be comfortably sufficient for your config.

Considering this is a recently created thread, I might as well take the opportunity to put forth my UPS related queries, pertaining to my specific needs/requirements.
Presently, I have an iBall Nirantar UPS-621 (600VA) to which a HuntKey PZA402-2 four sockets power strip is connected. On the said power strip are currently connected, a Sony Ericsson EP800 mini charger, a Sony CP-AD2 USB AC adaptor, a Panasonic PQLV219BX AC adaptor for a Panasonic KX-TG3611SX digital cordless phone, while one socket usually remains unused.
Whenever there is a power cut; irrespective of the time length/period, the aforementioned UPS switches to battery mode, but starts beeping immediately; thereby not providing a convincing and substantial backup power. Am I correct to believe, such a circumstance arises because there is minimally insufficient load on the UPS? If so, what can I do to circumvent this issue? One of the measures I have thought of is, to connect our Sony Bravia KLV-40BX400 LCD television to the unused socket of the HuntKey power strip. Is this advisable though?
Eventually, I will purchase an additional one or two units of the aforementioned power strip, and connect various chargers of portable devices to it/them.
Alternatively, I am contemplating on purchasing a low capacity UPS; such as the Intex CFL-UPS 50, or a similar product from another reliable brand/manufacturer, with the aforementioned HuntKey power strip(s) connected to it, and use it to power the various chargers I have previously mentioned, with the exception of the LCD television; of course!
The drawback is, the output sockets on the rear side of the UPS; which are 2 Pin, and this makes it impossible to directly connect a unit of the HuntKey power strip to the UPS. I would like to purchase an appropriate converter/adapter manufactured by a reliable brand of electrical products, but am unable to ascertain; neither the appropriate product, nor the brand.
I look forward to your suggestion(s) and recommendation(s). Nevertheless, I thank you all for your continued patience.

I don't think so, My sister had a UPS on which only the modem and wireless router were connected, and it worked just fine. Most probably the battery is going..
This can easily be tested though. Just attach something that consumes more power and turn off the power to the UPS. How old is the UPS btw ?

Please don't opt for APC 1 KVA UPS. Its performs well for 1-2 years but then starts giving problems. Even though the ASS is really good, its not worth the trouble. Get a Microtek One.
