You can do this in both JavaScript and PHP , JavaScript solution is already above. Here is a PHP solution:

<?php

$page = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
$sec = "10";

date("Y-m-d");

date_default_timezone_set('Asia/Kolkata');
$time= date('H:i');

if($time == '11:51')
{
    echo mt_rand(0,9);
    echo '<br>';
}
?>
<?php
$page = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
$sec = "10";
header("Refresh: $sec; url=$page");
?>
<html>
    <head>
    </head>
    <body>
    <?php
        echo "Watch the page reload itself in 10 second!";
    ?>
    </body>
</html>

PHP is server side, any code there will not get called without a request from the browser, the solution is AJAX. In your case try something like this (you need jQuery for this particular example):

window.setInterval(function(){
  $.ajax({
    url:"my-file.php",
    success:function(data){
      //now data is the current time on the server, react accordingly with location.reload(true);
  });

}, 10000); // check every 10 seconds (change to any milliseconds you want)

In your my-file.php just echo the server time

You should make your code something like:

<?php

$page = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
$sec = "10";

date("Y-m-d");

date_default_timezone_set('Asia/Kolkata');
$time= date('H:i');

if($time == '11:51')
{
    echo mt_rand(0,9);
    echo '<br>';
}
?>
<?php
$page = $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];
$sec = "10";
?>
<html>
    <head>
<script type="text/javascript">
    setInterval(function() {
        window.location.href = '<?php echo $page?>';
    },<?php echo (int)$sec ?> * 1000); 
</script>
    </head>
    <body>
    <?php
        echo "Watch the page reload itself in 10 second!";
    ?>
    </body>
</html>

You can you use this little Javascript snippet to refresh the page.

window.onload = function() {
	setInterval(function() {
		location.reload(true);
	},21 * 1000); //21 is after how much seconds you wanna reload!
};
