You need a UK Transit Visa only if you don't have a valid USA VISA stamped in the passport.
My Parents always use BA, and they never take a UK transit visa.

But if i use BA to visit India, in the near future i would be taking a transit visa, as my H1 Visa on the passport has expired (Using H1 Extension Approval right now)

If your parents have B1/B2 stamped and valid upto a future date, they dont need DATV.
Otherwise , they do

They dont as long as they stay with in the airport and have connecting flight the same day
