EISA is similar to ISA. Since ISA amount is considered so I don't think any reason why EISA will not be accepted.

I am afraid not. See para 202 of the Guidance note:

202. The evidence of maintenance must be of cash funds in the bank (this includes savings accounts and current accounts even when notice must be given), loan or official financial or government sponsorship available to the applicant. Other accounts or financial instruments such as shares, bonds, pension funds etc, regardless of notice period, are not acceptable.
