Open Access Policy
Commitment to Open Science:
The Journal of Multidisciplinary Research in Science, Technology and Management, published by Power House Solutions Private Limited, is firmly committed to the principles of Open Access. We believe that freely accessible research accelerates scientific discovery, fosters global collaboration, and ensures the widest possible dissemination of knowledge.
Access and Licensing:
All articles published in the journal are fully Open Access and immediately available to read, download, and share upon publication, free of charge to the reader.
To ensure maximum use and exposure of the research, all articles are published under the Creative Commons Attribution-Non-commercial-No-Derivatives 4.0 International License (CC BY-NC-ND 4.0). Under this license:
Attribution: Users must give appropriate credit to the original authors and the journal.
Non-commercial: Commercial reuse is strictly prohibited without prior written permission from the publisher and the author.
No Derivatives: Distribution of derivative works (remixing, transforming, or building upon the material) is strictly prohibited without prior written permission from the publisher and the author.
Publishing Operations:
Publishing operations, platform maintenance, and editorial administration are managed by Power House Solutions Private Limited. To sustain the Open Access model and offset the costs associated with peer review management, professional typesetting, digital archiving, and platform hosting, the journal may levy an Article Processing Charge up to INR 800 + Applicable taxes. This charge is only applicable after a manuscript has successfully passed the peer-review process and been officially accepted for publication.
Archiving and Self-Archiving:
The journal permits and encourages authors to self-archive their accepted manuscripts (post prints) and the final published PDF versions on personal websites, institutional repositories, and academic networks immediately upon publication.
