Exemption to STPI Unit

Dear All,

We have one client which is STPI unit located in EOU. Now the company is exiting from the STPI scheme wef October 2010. Can the company claim exemption U/s 10A  for first 6 months of the year 2010-11 ie. up to the date it is under the scheme. We need to ascertain this for the purpose of payment of Advance Tax for the PY 2010-11.

In my view, we can claim  the same but, I am not sure. Could you please clarify on the same
