Processing Charges
The journal follows an Open Access publishing model to provide free and unrestricted access to published research articles. To support the editorial and publication process, an Article Processing Charge (APC) may be applicable for manuscripts accepted for publication.
The APC supports various publishing activities, including:
- Editorial management and manuscript processing
- Peer-review administration
- DOI registration (where applicable)
- Online publication and hosting
- Digital preservation and maintenance of published articles
APC Policy
Article Processing Charges are applicable only after the manuscript has been accepted for publication.
The payment of APC does not influence the editorial decision, peer-review process, or acceptance of a manuscript. All manuscripts are evaluated based on their academic quality, originality, significance, and relevance.
APC Amount
The applicable APC for accepted manuscripts is:
Indian Authors: INR 2000 per accepted article
International Authors: USD 25 per accepted article
Authors will receive payment instructions after acceptance of the manuscript.
Payment Method
Authors can complete APC payments through the payment methods provided by the journal.
Available payment options may include:
- Bank Transfer
- UPI/QR Code Payment
- Online Payment
Authors should provide payment confirmation details after completing the payment process.
APC Waiver Policy
The journal does not currently provide Article Processing Charge (APC) waivers or discounts.
All accepted manuscripts are subject to the applicable APC according to the journal's published fee structure.
The APC policy is applied equally to all authors. The editorial decision, peer-review process, and publication acceptance are completely independent of APC payment.
Authors are encouraged to review the APC details before submitting their manuscripts.
