It might be necessary or say you might feel morally obligated to give your employer the reasons for why you are opting out of the company but it might not be so in case of your clients. Your clients need not necessarily know as to what led you to take the decision. But yes, for courtesy sake, it is always good to let the clients know that you won't be available in office, if you were at a position or in a job profile that required you to interact with them much.
