If it is going to be used by many clients,
 why not use GPS or other reference clock?

 I would have though the India Time and Frequency Standards Laboratory
   and/or India National Physical Laboratory would likely have
   stratum one NTP services referenced to their caesium and rubidium atomic 
clocks;
  or from the National Reference clock centers (NRCs),
   the Main National Reference clock Centre (MNRC VSNL Mumbai)
   and/or the Backup National Reference clock Centre (BNRC Delhi).

 It looks like time is also available via through radio clock 10 MHz broadcast,
  and through NPLI Teleclock, a service via phone lines (like US NIST ACTS?)
  and via STFS over INSAT (Indian National Satellite System),
  not to mention via GPS.
