Article Processing Charges - Susruta Ayurveda

Transparent Open Access Policy

₹1,500 INR / per accepted article

To sustain full, immediate Open Access publication without charging readers or institutional subscribers, the International Journal of Traditional & Integrative Health Sciences (IJTIHS) levies an Article Processing Charge (APC) of ₹1,500 INR per accepted manuscript.

No Submission Fee: There are zero charges for manuscript submission or editorial screening.
Pay Only After Acceptance: The APC is payable strictly after the manuscript has completed peer review and received formal editorial acceptance.
Editorial Independence: Peer-review evaluations and editorial decisions are made entirely independently of payment status.

Payment Notification & Official Invoicing:

Upon formal acceptance of your manuscript, the corresponding author will receive the official acceptance letter along with the invoice and payment instructions (bank transfer / UPI / digital payment options) sent directly from our official editorial desk: info@susrutaayurveda.com.

What Does the APC Cover?

The modest fee directly offsets publishing operations and technical infrastructure:

Professional copyediting, typesetting, and XML/PDF generation.
DOI registration and persistent metadata deposit.
Open Access licensing under Creative Commons (CC-BY 4.0).
Perpetual digital preservation on academic archive networks.

Important Security Notice

Please note that IJTIHS will never request payment from private or third-party email accounts. Always verify that payment communications originate exclusively from info@susrutaayurveda.com.
