What this article will cover
A full salary-calculator article on Hill Area Allowance will cover the Special Compensatory (Hill Area) Allowance for postings in scheduled hill areas, its abolition by the 7th Central Pay Commission with effect from 1 July 2017 (Department of Expenditure Office Memorandum No. 4/1/2017-E.II(B) dated 13 July 2017), and how it differed from the remote-locality, bad-climate, tribal-area and Sunderban allowances that were instead subsumed into the Tough Location Allowance, with internal links to neighbouring topics on salary-calculator.in and a references section pointing to primary sources.
