IPR Publication Policy: 2011
1) Publication charges will be paid only for those articles which have been routed through
the Publication Committee and approved by the Director.2) Waiver of charges for all publications should be sought from publishers as far as possible.
3) The printing cost of color figures is very high. Keeping budget considerations in view,
printing of colored figures are discouraged. However, charges for color printing can be
paid for figures appearing in articles which are published in journals having impact
factor of 6 and higher. In this case too, the authors are urged to use their better sense of
judgment and avoid printing those figures in color which can be printed in black and
white readily with no loss of any data information (e.g. instead of using colored line
plots, black lines with different styles can be employed, surface plots having two colors
can be readily represented by black and grey shades).
