Hi Rakesh
First split the question as
1.In the standpoint of 1st year Machine cost is Rs.1,20,000/- and the depreciation provided as straightline for Rs.12000/- each for 10 years.
2.In the standponit of 3rd year the useful period of assets are revised as 5 more years only (Totally 8 years) and Zero residual value.Hence balance unprovided depreciation of Rs.84000/- (1,20,000-12000-12000-12000), we have to provided in next 5 years as Rs.16,800/- (84000/5)

As per para 11 of AS - 6, If the Original estimated useful life undergoes any change, the unamortised depreciation should be charged to revenue over revised useful life. Therefore, For years 1, 2 and 3, depreciation would be s. 12000/- pa. For the rest five years depreciation would be Rs. 16,800/- pa.
