I found another website where a similar question was asked, and the answer was no, you don´t need a visa for Mexico to visit as a tourist if you have a valid visa for UK (but no distinction was made for overseas territory.)

thanks mclarjh.So overseas territory visa will not work.

Can you just let me know if transit visa for uk will be good or tourist visa will be required

I strongly recommend you contact the Mexican consulate nearest you for definitive advice.

No, a transit visa for UK will not suffice.

You're asking for an interpretation of law/regulations ... a legal opinion with which you seem to want to rely upon. Why aren't you putting this question to the Consular Office / Embassy of Mexico closest to where you live or are currently? After all, it's not the well-meaning opinions of those of us here that are important. What's important is how the Mexican government defines its own regulations when you get-off the airplane.

I had already got in touch with them before posting a question here.I got the same wording as mentioned in my question.No clear cut answer.Infact they jjust replied to only one of the mails and then stopped reply after that.

But the answer you got is clear cut. Don't they say that a non-expired visa for the UK is acceptable ?

No. The UK transit visa expires as soon as you leave UK.
