Our company is based in Mumbai. We do not have Dearness Allowance in our compensation structure, but we have Special Allowance salary components. Are Dearness Allowance and Special Allowance the same for Gujarat state? Do we need to calculate the PF and Gratuity based on the percentage of Basic salary or Basic + Special Allowance percentage?

Hi,
Both are not the same. You need not calculate EPF/Gratuity on Special Allowances. If you are from HR, it is a task for you to ask your management to consider DA instead of SA or to keep SA as well. Try to act in the interests of the employees at large.
