Thanks Arun and the others for your suggestions. It is indeed odd that the timers are so far apart.

I have been monitoring hwclock + date and it appears that only the system time (date) is progressively falling behind. Hwclock always shows time 5 minutes behind real IST. This indicates to me that the CMOS is not at fault.

I went ahead and set up Ntpd. It set the system time and synced it to the hardware clock correctly. I will be monitoring the system for any skew.

Thanks,
Santosh
