I don't think that there is any specific direction about treatment of Batta in PF and gratuity. Batta being an amount payable on the basis of trips undertaken by a driver or a similar employee, will be varying according to his daily duty whereas dearness allowance will be fixed either as a percentage of basic wage or on the basis of consumer price index. The variable DA as the latter denotes is also fixed but is variable only to the extend of CPI. Similarly, batta is not a regular earning for a driver and is not considered for leave wages or other benefits. As such, I feel that batta will not be considered at par with DA and need not be taken for gratuity calculation.
