Complete publication support for UGC CARE listed journals — recognized by Indian universities, colleges, and institutions for faculty API score calculations, PhD degree completion requirements, and institutional research metrics.
The University Grants Commission (UGC) of India established the Consortium for Academic and Research Ethics (CARE) to maintain a reference list of quality journals recommended for academic publication by Indian researchers. Known as the UGC CARE list, it replaces the earlier UGC-approved journal list.
UGC CARE publications are explicitly required or recognized in several critical academic contexts in India:
The CARE list includes both UGC CARE List 1 (journals with strong international indexing) and CARE List 2 (Indian journals meeting quality standards). Nix Publishing supports publication in both lists across all disciplines.
We identify the most suitable UGC CARE listed journals for your research — matching scope, discipline, and publication timeline. We use the official UGC CARE reference list and verify current listing status before recommending any journal.
Domain-expert researchers write original, plagiarism-free research papers meeting UGC quality standards — properly structured, accurately cited, and formatted to the selected journal's guidelines.
We handle submission through the journal's portal — author registration, file uploads, editorial correspondence, and submission confirmation. You focus on your research while we manage the process.
For researchers facing API deadlines or promotion timelines, we identify CARE journals with faster review and publication timelines — ensuring your publication is completed within your required timeframe.
We understand the UGC API scoring system for faculty promotions and advise on the most valuable publication combinations to maximize your API score improvement.
All papers delivered below UGC-recommended similarity thresholds with Turnitin verification — ensuring compliance with UGC academic integrity guidelines.
Supporting Indian researchers and faculty meet UGC publication requirements for promotions, PhD completion, and grant eligibility.
