Publication Charging Policy

Journal of Social Sciences Development (JSSD) is managed under Asian Research Development (PVT) Limited. Globally, the publication costs and associated expenses of many journals are covered by different resources like sponsoring parties that include organizations, societies, and research groups and thus do not demand any publication charges. In the case of JSSD, there is no financial assistance and income sources to meet expenses associated with the publication process. JSSD is determined to index with well-reputed indexing agencies and ensures standard parameters to bring up the journal at par with international level. Journals use a variety of means to generate income required to meet publication costs including editorial costs, peer review, website maintenance, indexing costs, content registration, promotion, circulation, and production.

To meet desired standards and secure academic and financial scope of authors, JSSD recommends nominal publication charges to meet journal’s expenses. JSSD charges Rs. 30000/-  fee after acceptance of article for publication based upon positive reviews from reviewers and their recommendations for publications that will cover journal overall expenses. The publication charges of the JSSD will help to further improve standards and paves way towards inclusion of well-reputed indexing agencies like Scopus and web of science that is dire need in contemporary competitive situations wherein researchers are desirous for publications.
