Publication Charges (APC) & Fee Policy
To maintain gold open access with no subscription barriers, JAMCR levies an Article Processing Charge (APC) upon final acceptance. To cover the costs of manuscript handling, peer review, online hosting, DOI assignment, and long-term digital preservation, a nominal APC is applied only after manuscript acceptance:
| Author Category | APC Rate | Details |
|---|---|---|
| Indian Authors | ₹2,500 (INR) | Per accepted research paper |
| International Authors | $100 (USD) | Per accepted research paper |
| SMCR Society Members | 25% Discount | Valid for active society members |
| Low-Income Nations | Full / Partial Waiver | Available on case-by-case request |
No submission fee or page charges are applicable at any stage. Payment instructions will be shared with the corresponding author after acceptance. Authors facing financial constraints or affiliated with institutions from low-income or lower-middle-income countries (as per World Bank classification) may apply for a partial or full APC waiver; waiver requests must be submitted at the time of manuscript submission along with a brief justification, and waiver decisions are made by the Editorial Office independent of the peer-review and editorial decision.
Authors are encouraged to acknowledge any funding agencies, institutions, or projects that supported the research or publication charges, and corresponding authors must ensure compliance with their funding agency's open-access requirements. JAMCR maintains a transparent fee structure with no hidden or additional charges after acceptance, and there are no extra charges for color figures, supplementary files, or special formatting.
Note: There are no submission fees or color page charges. APC applies only after peer review and formal acceptance.
