Article Processing Charges

Indian Journal of Law (IJL) publishes all articles in full open access, which means that articles can be used and reused by anyone, as long as the authors are credited. All of our articles are released under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International License.
Authors pay a one-time Article Processing Charge (APC) to cover, among other publishing chores, the costs of peer review administration and management, professional creation of articles in PDF and other formats, and dissemination of published papers in various locations. Please note that you may still submit an advance payment, but this does not guarantee that your novel will be approved. There are no fees for rejected articles, no fees for submitting them, and no additional fees based on the article's length, number of figures, or other information. Some items are released without charge (Editorials, Corrections, Addendums, Retractions, Comments, etc.).

Discounts and waivers
Annually, up to 35 percent of IJL's content charge is waived. APCs are typically waived and cross-subsidized from fields with larger APC support for authors without sufficient funds. From instance to case, writers from low- and middle-income countries may receive exemptions or reductions. The Managing Editor selects whether or not to publish an article depending on the quality of the study and the authors' ability to pay. Authors can contact the publisher at info@shodhsagar.com.
Waivers are at the discretion of the Publisher and should be discussed with the editorial office when the piece is submitted. The ability of the writers to pay the Processing Charges does not influence editorial choices. However, writers should consider beforehand if they have sufficient funds to pay the full APC. Authors can contact the publisher at info@shodhsagar.com.

Article Processing Charges
The APC by journal is given in the table below.
For India:                                           INR 4,000/-
For South Asian Countries:              $ 100
For Rest of the World:                       $ 200
APCs are payable within 7 to 10 business days.
Soon after a paper is accepted, an invoice is sent to the author's payment contact. Only invoices that come from Shodh Sagar are valid. We do not give permission to anyone else to get the APCs. Shodh Sagar is the only service provider, so it can't be blamed for what other people do.
