We present BVRI photometry and spectroscopy of Type Ia Supernova SN 2010at. SN 2010at is located in the MCG+13-09-010 galaxy (z =0.04) and was discovered on 03-19-2010. Our analysis focuses on the follow up observations taken with the 2-meter Himalayan Chandra Telescope from 2010-03-21 to 2010-05-24. We present the light curve and color evolution of SN 2010at, along with MLCS2k2 and SALT-II light curve fits. We find that SN 2010at's color and photometric evolution are similar to SN 1999ac, but SN 2010at is brighter at maximum. Spectroscopically, SN 2010at appears to be normal at early times.
