      "q": "What is the average Accountant salary in Darjeeling?",
      "a": "Refer to the on-page \"Salary snapshot\" for the current market band. Broadly, Accountant pay in Darjeeling rises with years of experience, board (IB > CBSE > state), and school size — the linked full pay report breaks these out further."
