The final word…

The final word…   
 Can Labour Market Regulatory Authority please give a definite answer to the following?

 I would like to know if the gratuity paid to an expat at the end of service, is based on basic or gross salary.

I earn a basic salary of BD 700 plus house allowance of BD300 and have been with the same company for 10 years. So do I get gratuity based on BD700 or BD1,000?

I M Sunil
