Summary: A triangulation of a surface is called \(q\)-equivelar if each of its vertices is incident with exactly \(q\) triangles. \textit{A. Altshuler} [Discrete Math. 1, 299--314 (1972; Zbl 0226.05109)] had shown that an equivelar triangulation of torus has a Hamiltonian circuit. Here we present a necessary and sufficient condition for existence of a contractible Hamiltonian cycle in equivelar triangulation of a surface.
