Frequently Asked Questions
Q1. How many policies does IJRTI publish?
IJRTI publishes 23 numbered policies covering publication charges, peer review, ethics, refunds, GST, copyright, AI-generated content and more — all listed above with direct links.
Q2. Where can I find the refund policy?
See Policy 12 — Refund Policy. Nothing is charged unless a paper is accepted; once accepted and the fee is paid, that amount is non-refundable. Duplicate payments and payment-gateway errors are corrected as billing fixes, not refund exceptions.
Q3. Is there a quick FAQ instead of reading all 23 policies?
Yes — Policy 19 is a dedicated FAQ page summarizing the most common questions authors ask about IJRTI's policies.
