Pay Only After Acceptance

IJAICET does not charge submission fees or peer-review fees. Payment is requested only after a manuscript has completed editorial processing, peer review, and formal acceptance.

Standard Author Charges

• Article Processing Charge: INR 1,500
• DOI registration charge: INR 700
• Editing and formatting charge: INR 500
• Standard total after acceptance: INR 2,700

International authors may be given a fixed international equivalent amount by the editorial office where applicable.

Custom Approved Amount

Some authors may receive a reduced amount after a waiver or discount decision. In such cases, authors should pay only the final approved amount communicated by the editorial office.

Online Gateway Charge

A 2% online gateway/convenience charge is added only when an author chooses online payment. This charge is paid by the author and is shown before payment.

• Formula: Final online payable amount = approved base amount + 2% gateway charge.
• Standard example: INR 2,700 + INR 54 = INR 2,754.
• Reduced example: INR 2,000 + INR 40 = INR 2,040.
