It's not Indian clocks it's Switzerland clock, the compagny is spectratime in the town of Neuchâtel.
If they double everything they won't make this bad idea of sharing the same power supply.

They're all the same clocks but the ones owned by India are working fine, so Indian clocks is a good description.
All the satellites probably use the same clock power supply, regardless of which clock they chose to put into the satellite.
That would explain why you have the Indian clocks by the same manufacturer all working, and why two completely different clock technologies (hydrogen maser and rubidium) are both failing.
