We report the direct detection of Lyman Continuum (LyC) emission from 9galaxies and 1 Active Galactic Nuclei (AGN) at $z$ $\sim$ 1.1-1.6 in theGOODS-North field using deep observations from the Ultraviolet ImagingTelescope (UVIT) onboard AstroSat. The absolute escape fraction of the sourcesestimated from the far-ultraviolet (FUV) and H$\alpha$ line luminosities usingMonte Carlo (MC) analysis of two Inter-Galactic Medium (IGM) models span arange $\sim$ 10 - 55 $\%$. The restframe UV wavelength of the sources falls inthe extreme-ultraviolet (EUV) regime $\sim$ 550-700 \AA, the shortest LyCwavelength range probed so far. This redshift range remains devoid of directdetections of LyC emission due to the instrumental limitations of previouslyavailable facilities. With UVIT having a very low detector noise, each of thesesources are detected with an individual signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) $>$ 3 whilefor the stack of six sources, we achieve an SNR $\sim$ 7.4. The LyC emission isseen to be offset from the optical centroids and extended beyond the UVIT PSFof 1.$^{\prime\prime}6$ in most of the sources. This sample fills an importantniche between GALEX and Cosmic Origins Spectrograph (COS) at low-$z$, and HSTWFC3 at high-$z$ and is crucial in understanding the evolution of LyC leakers.
