  Pachmarhi Array of \v{C}erenkov Telescopes (PACT) has been designed to search
for celestial TeV $\gamma-$rays using the wavefront sampling technique. PACT,
located at Pachmarhi, (latitude 22$^\circ$ 28$^\prime$ N, longitude 76$^\circ$
26$^\prime$ E, altitude 1075 m) consists of 25 telescopes deployed over an area
of 80 m $\times$ 100m. Each telescopes consists of 7 parabolic reflectors, each
viewed by a fast phototube behind a 3$^\circ$ mask at the focus. The density
and the arrival time of the photons at the PMT are recorded for each shower.
The energy threshold and collection area of the array are estimated, from Monte
Carlo simulations, to be $\sim$ 900 GeV and 10$^5$ m$^2$ respectively. The
accuracy in determination of arrival angle of a shower is estimated to be about
0.1$^\circ$ in the near vertical direction. About 99% of the off-axis hadronic
events could be rejected from directional information alone. Further, at least
75% of the on-axis hadronic events could be rejected using species sensitive
parameters derived from timing and density measurements. These cuts on data to
reject background would retain $\sim$ 44% of the $\gamma-$ray signal. The
sensitivity of the array for a 5$\sigma$ detection of $\gamma-$ray signal at a
threshold energy of 1 TeV has been estimated to be $\sim$ 4.1 $\times$
10$^{-12}$ photons cm$^{-2}$ s$^{-1}$ for an on source exposure of 50 hours.
The PACT set-up has been fully commissioned and is collecting data. The details
of the system parameters and sensitivity will be presented.
