No, you do not have to separately pay the driver meal allowance during a Tempo Traveller trip in Delhi NCR.
In most cases, the driver allowance (also called DA, typically ₹400–₹700 per day) covers the driver's food, meals, accommodation, and other daily expenses for outstation trips. This is a standard practice among reliable operators; the allowance is either built into the total fare (per km or package) or added as a fixed daily charge (e.g., ₹500/day), and it explicitly includes meals and lodging, so you don't need to arrange or pay extra for the driver's food separately.
For local Delhi trips (same-day/within city), driver allowance is usually minimal or included, with no separate meal costs. Always confirm the inclusions in your quote; transparent providers clearly state that the DA covers food/accommodation.
For a more premium and comfortable experience with similar policies (allowance covering meals), consider upgrading to
