What PRASIT offers
Commitments to authors and reviewers

Double-blind peer review

Every paper receives 3 independent reviews. Minimum 4-week review cycle. Reviewer feedback sent to all authors — accepted and rejected.

Target acceptance rate: 25–35%

A quality threshold, not a quota. If submissions are weak, acceptance will be lower. Rejection includes constructive reviewer comments.

CrossRef DOI

Each accepted paper receives a permanent CrossRef DOI, making it globally findable and citable. Proceedings submitted for Google Scholar indexing.

Flat fee: ₹3,900 / $95

Single fee for all Indian categories. Fee waivers available for students from economically weaker backgrounds on request.

Indexing note: PRASIT 2027 is the fifth edition, and proceedings from earlier editions are indexed in Google Scholar. On approval, the proceedings series will be submitted to the Web of Science Book Citation Index (BkCI) and to SCOPUS for evaluation and indexing (T&C)*. Submission does not guarantee acceptance by either body, and we do not claim IEEE Xplore indexing. Authors requiring confirmed Scopus/WoS indexing for university mandates should factor this in before submitting.

About PRASIT

The story behind the name

Our mission

PRASIT was founded to address a growing problem in Indian academic publishing — the proliferation of predatory conferences that collect fees without providing genuine peer review or credible indexing.

We believe BTech and MTech students who produce original, honest research deserve a platform with real reviewers, meaningful feedback, and verifiable publication records.

Peer review standards are applied consistently and are not adjusted based on submission volume.

We are India-rooted and open to international participation.

प्रसार

Review Process

How peer review works at PRASIT

Transparency about our review process is core to our credibility

The review process
Every paper follows these exact steps
1

Desk check (1 week)

TPC Chair checks: correct format, plagiarism below 15%, within scope, double-blind anonymity maintained. Papers failing desk check are returned immediately with reasons.

2

Reviewer assignment (1 week)

TPC Chair assigns 3 reviewers per paper from the relevant track. Conflict of interest is checked — no reviewer from the same institution as any author.

3

Independent review (4 weeks)

Each reviewer independently evaluates the paper on: originality, technical quality, relevance, writing clarity, and references. Reviewers do not see each other's scores during this phase.

4

TPC discussion (1 week)

For borderline papers, TPC Chair facilitates discussion among reviewers. Final accept/reject decision is based on reviewer consensus and TPC Chair judgment.

5

Author notification (with feedback)

ALL authors — accepted and rejected — receive the full reviewer comments. Rejected authors receive constructive feedback explaining what was lacking and how to improve.

6

Camera-ready & DOI assignment

Accepted authors submit final camera-ready PDF. Each paper is assigned a permanent CrossRef DOI and published in the official PRASIT proceedings.

Our commitment: We target a 25–35% acceptance rate. This is not a quota — it is a quality standard. If submissions are of high quality, acceptance may be higher. If quality is poor, it will be lower.
Reviewer evaluation criteria
Every reviewer scores each paper against the same weighted framework
CriterionWeight
Originality25%
Technical Quality25%
Methodology20%
Results & Analysis15%
Relevance to Track10%
Presentation & Writing Clarity5%
Reviewers score each criterion independently and provide written comments. The weighted score guides the accept/reject recommendation but does not replace reviewer and TPC judgment on borderline papers.
Conflict of interest
Applied to every reviewer and TPC member on every paper

Same institution

The reviewer is currently employed at or enrolled in the same university or organization as any author.

Recent co-authorship

The reviewer has co-authored a paper with any author within the last 3 years.

Supervisor/student relationship

The reviewer has served, or currently serves, as the PhD/MTech advisor or supervisee of any author.

Personal or financial relationship

The reviewer has a close personal relationship with, or financial interest in, any author's work.

Reviewer-requested conflicts

The reviewer independently identifies and discloses any other relationship that could bias their judgment.

Committee member submissions

If a TPC or organizing committee member is an author on a submission, they take no part in that paper's review or decision at any stage.

How conflicts are handled: Before assignment, the TPC Chair cross-checks author affiliations and names against the reviewer pool. Any match on the categories above results in that reviewer being excluded from the assignment for that paper — no exceptions. Authors may also name individuals they believe should not review their paper, with a brief reason, at submission time; such requests are considered by the TPC Chair.
Publication

PRASIT 2027 Proceedings

How accepted papers are published, indexed, and cited

Proceedings publisher

Accepted papers are published in the PRASIT 2027 Conference Proceedings, an open-access proceedings volume published by PRASIT Technologies, India.

Access, rights & licensing

Open-access policy

All proceedings are freely accessible online at prasit.in. No paywall, no subscription, no embargo period.

Copyright

Authors retain copyright of their own work. By submitting, authors grant PRASIT Technologies a non-exclusive license to publish, distribute, and archive the paper as part of the proceedings.

Licensing

Papers are published under Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International (CC BY 4.0) — readers may share and adapt the work with credit to the original authors.

Institutional repositories

Because copyright is retained by authors under CC BY 4.0, authors are free to upload their accepted, published paper to their institutional repository at any time.

Preprints

Posting a preprint on arXiv or a similar server before or after submission is permitted and does not count as duplicate submission, provided it is disclosed at submission.

Third-party material

If a paper includes figures, images, or data owned by a third party, the author is responsible for securing permission or using material appropriately licensed for reuse before submission.

DOI & indexing

DOI policy

Each accepted paper receives a permanent Digital Object Identifier (DOI), making it globally findable and citable, assigned upon publication in the proceedings.

CrossRef

DOIs are issued via CrossRef, the standard DOI registration agency used by IEEE, Springer, Elsevier, and major academic publishers. PRASIT Technologies' CrossRef membership is confirmed.

Google Scholar status

Proceedings from PRASIT's four prior editions are indexed in Google Scholar. The PRASIT 2027 proceedings will be submitted for indexing after publication; timelines are set by Google, not by PRASIT.

Future indexing policy: PRASIT 2027 is the fifth edition. On approval, the proceedings series will be submitted to the Web of Science Book Citation Index (BkCI) and to SCOPUS for evaluation and indexing (T&C)*. We do not currently claim confirmed Scopus, Web of Science, IEEE Xplore, or DBLP indexing. Any confirmed indexing in those databases will only be announced after official confirmation from the indexing body. Authors who require Scopus/WoS-indexed publications for university requirements should factor this in before submitting.

*T&C: Submission for evaluation does not guarantee acceptance. Indexing bodies apply their own independent review criteria and timelines, which are outside PRASIT's control.
ISBN & ISSN

Proceedings identifiers

  • ISBN To be assigned before proceedings publication
  • ISSN Not applicable — the proceedings are a one-time conference volume, not a serial publication
How published papers will appear

Each accepted paper is published as an individually citable entry in the proceedings, listed by track, with its own DOI landing page. Full-text PDFs are hosted on prasit.in and remain permanently accessible at no cost to readers.

Proceedings status
PRASIT 2027 Proceedings — fifth edition. Publication is scheduled after the conference concludes (March 2027), once all camera-ready papers and DOIs are finalized.

Proceedings from the previous four editions are published and linked below for reference. Once finalized, this year's volume will be linked here as "PRASIT 2027 Proceedings → View Proceedings."
Example citation format

Authors are encouraged to cite PRASIT 2027 papers in IEEE style. Example:

A. Author and B. Author, "Title of the paper," in Proc. PRASIT 2027 – Premier Research & Academic Symposium in Information Technology, Online, India, Mar. 15–16, 2027, pp. xx–xx, doi: [assigned upon publication].
FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Straight answers to the questions we get most

About PRASIT 2027
Why should I trust PRASIT?

PRASIT 2027 is the fifth edition, with four completed editions and published proceedings behind it. Beyond that track record, we've tried to make everything verifiable: our full review process is published on the Review Process page, and our policies are public and specify what is confirmed versus still in progress — for example, Scopus/Web of Science indexing, which is submitted for evaluation but not yet confirmed.

Is PRASIT 2027 indexed in Scopus or Web of Science?

Not yet confirmed, and we won't claim otherwise. Each accepted paper receives a CrossRef DOI (registration confirmed), making it citable and findable, and proceedings from prior editions are indexed in Google Scholar. On approval, the proceedings series will be submitted to the Web of Science Book Citation Index (BkCI) and to SCOPUS for evaluation and indexing — submission does not guarantee acceptance, and PRASIT will only display those logos once officially confirmed by each body. We do not claim IEEE Xplore indexing.

Is acceptance guaranteed if I pay the registration fee?

No. Every paper goes through double-blind peer review regardless of fee payment, and papers can be rejected. Registration fees cover conference operations (platform, certificates, proceedings assembly) — they are not a pay-to-publish arrangement.

Submission & presentation
Is PRASIT 2027 an online or in-person conference?

Fully online. Authors present live over video call during the 15–16 March 2027 sessions; exact platform and scheduling details will be shared with accepted authors closer to the date.

What if my paper is rejected — do I get any feedback?

Yes. All authors, accepted or rejected, receive the full reviewer comments. Rejected authors get feedback explaining what was lacking and how to improve, rather than a bare rejection notice.

Can I withdraw my paper after it's accepted?

Yes, subject to our refund schedule: full refund if withdrawn more than 30 days before the conference, 50% within 15–30 days, and no refund within 14 days of the conference. See the Policies page for full terms.

Is a fee waiver available?

Students from economically weaker backgrounds may apply for a fee waiver by writing to contact@prasit.in with their institution ID and a brief note.

Conference policies

PRASIT operates under these policies — applied consistently to all submissions

Any revision to these policies will update the version number and effective date above.
PRASIT anti-predatory commitment
What separates PRASIT from a pay-to-publish operation

No pay-for-acceptance

PRASIT does not guarantee acceptance based on payment. Every paper is reviewed on merit before any registration fee is requested.

Submission separated from registration

Registration fees are only requested after a paper is accepted — never as a condition of submission or review.

No premature indexing claims

Confirmed indexing claims (Scopus, Web of Science, DBLP, etc.) are only published after official confirmation from the indexing body — never in advance. Where proceedings have been submitted for evaluation but not yet confirmed, this is disclosed as "submitted for evaluation," never presented as confirmed indexing.

No implied affiliations

PRASIT does not imply affiliation with any university, government body, or other organization unless that affiliation is real and disclosed.

Publication terms documented publicly

DOI, copyright, licensing, and open-access arrangements are published on this site — not hidden in fine print or disclosed only after payment.

Publication ethics
PRASIT follows COPE (Committee on Publication Ethics) guidelines

Authorship: All listed authors must have made a genuine intellectual contribution to the work. Honorary, gift, or ghost authorship is not permitted. The corresponding author is responsible for ensuring all co-authors have approved the final submission and agree to its publication.

Originality: Submitted work must be original and must not be under review at any other conference or journal simultaneously. Duplicate submission — submitting the same paper to two venues at the same time — will result in immediate rejection from PRASIT and notification to the other venue if identified.

Data integrity: Fabrication, falsification, or selective reporting of data is a serious breach of ethics. Authors must be able to provide underlying data upon request. PRASIT reserves the right to retract published papers if post-publication misconduct is established.

Data integrity: Fabrication, falsification, or selective reporting of data is a serious breach of ethics. Authors must be able to provide underlying data upon request. PRASIT reserves the right to retract published papers if post-publication misconduct is established.

Generative AI policy
Applies to all use of generative AI tools in preparing a submission

Language assistance permitted

AI tools may assist with language editing, grammar, and clarity — this does not need special disclosure beyond acknowledging the tool was used.

AI cannot be an author

No AI tool may be listed as an author or co-author. Authorship requires accountability that a tool cannot bear.

Authors remain responsible

Authors are fully responsible for all claims, analysis, and content in the paper, regardless of what tools assisted in producing it.

Fabricated citations prohibited

AI-generated or "hallucinated" references that do not correspond to real, verifiable sources are treated as a data-integrity violation.

AI-generated media disclosed

Any AI-generated images, figures, or synthetic data used in the paper must be clearly disclosed as such.

References must be verified

Authors must personally verify that every reference in the paper exists and is accurately represented before submission.

Confidentiality preserved

Unpublished or confidential material — including other authors' unpublished work — must not be entered into AI tools that may retain or expose it.

Similarity screening
Checked at desk review before any paper enters peer review

All submissions undergo similarity screening using PRASIT's academic plagiarism detection tool. A similarity score above the permitted threshold may trigger additional examination — but the score alone does not decide the outcome. Decisions are based on the nature and source of the overlap, not on percentage alone: a paper with 16% similarity from properly cited sources and standard phrasing may pass, while a paper with 12% similarity copied verbatim from one uncited source may not.

Typically proceeds

Below 15% similarity (excluding references and template boilerplate), with no single-source concentration.

Additional examination

15–25% similarity, or any concentration in one source — reviewed by the TPC Chair before proceeding.

Typically rejected

Above 25% similarity, or verbatim uncited copying regardless of overall percentage — rejected at desk check with the similarity report shared with the author.

Self-plagiarism

Submitting your own prior work without disclosure and proper citation is treated as plagiarism and results in desk rejection.

Our operational threshold is 15% as a screening trigger, not an automatic pass/fail line. Every flagged paper is examined by the TPC Chair before a decision is made.
Conflict of interest (COI) policy
Applied to all reviewers and TPC members

A conflict of interest exists when a reviewer has a professional or personal relationship with an author that could affect their objectivity. The following situations constitute a COI and require a reviewer to recuse themselves:

Same institution

The reviewer is currently employed at or enrolled in the same university or organization as any author.

Recent co-authorship

The reviewer has co-authored a paper with any author in the last 3 years.

Advisor / advisee relationship

The reviewer has served (or currently serves) as the PhD/MTech advisor or supervisee of any author.

Personal or financial conflict

The reviewer has a close personal relationship with, or financial interest in, any author's work.

Authors may declare COIs at submission time by listing names of individuals they believe should not review their paper, with a brief reason. Such requests are considered by the TPC Chair but are not guaranteed to be honored.
Privacy policy
What data PRASIT collects and how it is used
Our full Privacy Policy — covering data collected, purpose, legal basis, storage, third-party processors, payment data, cookies, retention, deletion, and your rights — is published as its own page. Read the Privacy Policy →
Withdrawal & refund policy
Read before paying registration

Paper withdrawal before review: Authors may withdraw a submitted paper at any time before the review assignment is complete by writing to contact@prasit.in. No fee applies at this stage since registration is paid after acceptance.

Withdrawal after acceptance: If an accepted author withdraws after paying registration, the paper will be removed from the proceedings. Refund eligibility: full refund if withdrawn more than 30 days before the conference date; 50% refund within 15–30 days; no refund within 14 days of the conference.

Conference cancellation: In the event PRASIT 2027 is cancelled for reasons outside our control, registered participants will receive a full refund within 30 working days.

All policy queries should be directed to contact@prasit.in. Policies may be updated; the version published on prasit.in at the time of submission applies.

4. Data storage. Submission, review, and registration data is stored on the PRASIT Submission Portal (prasit-portal.vercel.app), hosted on Vercel's infrastructure.

5. Third-party processors. We use the PRASIT Submission Portal (hosting: Vercel) to manage submissions and registration, and CrossRef to register DOIs for accepted papers. We do not sell, rent, or share personal data with third parties for commercial or marketing purposes.

6. Payment data. Registration is paid via bank transfer or UPI directly to PRASIT Technologies. We do not collect or store full bank account numbers or UPI PINs on our systems — payment confirmation (transaction reference/screenshot) is retained for reconciliation only.

7. Cookies. The main conference website (prasit.in) does not use tracking or advertising cookies. The submission portal uses only essential session cookies required to keep you logged in.

8. Analytics. We may use basic, privacy-respecting website analytics (e.g. aggregate page-visit counts) to understand site usage. This data is not linked to your submission or registration identity.

9. Retention. Submission and review data is retained for a minimum of 5 years for academic integrity purposes. Published proceedings (name, affiliation, paper title, abstract) are retained permanently as the academic record.

10. Data deletion. You may request deletion of your personal data — excluding already-published proceedings, which form the permanent academic record — by writing to contact@prasit.in.

11. User rights. You may request a copy of the personal data we hold about you, request correction of inaccurate data, and request deletion as described above. Write to the contact below for any of these requests.

12. Contact. For any privacy question or request, contact contact@prasit.in.
