Vetala Bhatta was a Maga Brahmin. He was one of Gem in Navratnas during the reign of Vikramaditya.[1]

Navaratnas (Sanskrit dvigu nava-ratna- "nine gems") was a term applied to a group of nine extraordinary people in a king's court in India.

He is known to have attributed the work of the sixteen stanza "Niti-pradeepa"[2] (Niti-pradīpa, literally, the lamp of conduct) to Vikramaditya.
