Fairly valid, yes.  You don't have any IPs mapped there - so it goes to one
of vsnl's routers, to a point where there's source filtering in force.

Routers _can_ have private IPs - in fact several core routers have only
private IPs, as they need to talk only to other routers on the same network,
not to the 'net at large.
