Is it necessary to access time server only on Live server in my organization or i can access it on internal network PC?

I assume you are in Asia.  If so, run the following script and  examine the output.  Pick three hosts that look best and use them in  place of "3.asia.pool.ntp.org".

Script:
--------cut here---------------
for i in 0 1 2 3
do
host $i.asia.pool.ntp.org
done | while read x
echo ""
do y="$(echo $x | sed 's/^.*has address //')"
ping -c10 -q $y
host $y
done
--------cut here---------------
Criteria for a "good" host:
no more than 10% packet loss.
max round trip time is acceptably low

deviation (mdev or stddev, depending on which version of ping) of  round trip time is acceptably low.

Enjoy!

 Rick
