Low publication fee journals in India
Compare publication charges, DOI choices and manuscript limits before choosing a fee option.
Compare Indian publication options
Researchers comparing low publication fee journals in India should make a simple comparison sheet. Record each journal's stated fees, DOI conditions, scope, article types and official policies. Verify indexing claims with the relevant database rather than treating website logos as proof. IJWOS is one option to evaluate against your requirements.
Your preparation checklist
- Compare official fee pages rather than advertisements
- Verify institutional requirements independently
- Check DOI conditions
- Record the date of your comparison
Confirm the selected plan
Before paying, compare your acceptance instructions with the fee table below. If a university, funder or employer requires a DOI or a particular journal status, verify that condition independently. The payment receipt should identify your manuscript; keep a copy and quote the Paper ID whenever you ask the editor about the transaction.
IJWOS publication fees and DOI options
| Author category | Fee | DOI |
|---|---|---|
| Indian authors | ₹499 | Without DOI |
| Indian authors | ₹699 | With DOI |
| International authors | US $20 | With DOI |
Indian plans cover up to 8 authors and 20 pages; the international plan covers up to 8 authors. Contact editor@ijwos.com about longer manuscripts, additional authors, international page limits or an unclear author category before payment.
Submission and editorial decisions
Submit the complete manuscript through the official IJWOS form and retain your Paper ID. Follow any assessment or revision instructions, and make payment according to the acceptance communication. Publication depends on editorial acceptance and complete documents; payment does not guarantee acceptance, indexing or a fixed review duration.
