List of Scopus indexed Journals Removed from UGC-CARE
The University Grants Commission (UGC) aspires to stimulate and empower the Indian academia through its “Quality Mandate”. A public notice was issued by the UGC, on the 28th of November, 2018, to announce the establishment of a dedicated Consortium for Academic and Research Ethics (UGC CARE List) to carry out this mandate.
The UGC-CARE Reference List of Quality Journals is now divided into TWO groups, instead of the original FOUR groups to simplify the search process. These are NOT hierarchic or ranked groups.
UGC-CARE List Group I: Journals found qualified through UGC-CARE protocols
UGC-CARE List Group II: Journals indexed in globally recognised databases
UGC-CARE List is updated quarterly i.e. on first of January, April, July, and October
Scopus indexed Journals Removed from UGC-CARE List Group II
Based on the complaints received from several journals unethical publishing practice, UGC-CARE started scrutinizing these Scopus indexed Journals in accordance with UGC-CARE protocols. Now, UGC has decided to remove these journals from Group II of the UGC-CARE List.
Note: Any publication in these journals will not be considered for any academic purposes. -UGC
