You use vsnl?  I used to use chat/pppd too and had the same problem.  
answer: this cannot be done with chat.
solution: use wvdial instead.  it will handle both and is easier to 
configure.

Only problem that I have with wvdial is that the only way to terminate 
it is by killing the process.  this kills pppd immediately, as a result 
of which, /etc/ppp/{ip-down,ip-down.local} aren't executed.

Does anyone know how to fix this?  Should I kill pppd instead of killing
wvdial?
