Publication schedule

Issues appear in April and October. The issue currently open for submissions is April 2027; its timetable is set out on the Call for Papers page.

Editorial independence

Editorial decisions are made by the editors on scholarly grounds alone. The Siddhanta Knowledge Foundation funds the journal but takes no part in the assessment of individual submissions, and no member of the Foundation outside the editorial team sees a manuscript under review.

Where an editor has any interest in a submission — as author, colleague, supervisor or collaborator — that editor is removed from the file and another editor handles it. See Conflict of Interest.

Indexing and identifiers

Each article carries a DOI and full metadata, exposed over OAI-PMH for harvesting. Indexing applications are made once the journal has published the volume of content that indexing services require.
