“Cites per paper” is a two-year cited-by rate computed from OpenAlex. It is not a Clarivate Journal Impact Factor — we neither compute nor license that metric (how the two differ). Citation rates differ enormously between fields, so compare within a discipline. What the other figures mean: journal quartile, SJR, h-index and article processing charge.

The quartile is the one Scimago prints for each category. Rank is the journal's position by SJR among the journals Scimago lists in that category (#1 is the highest); “—” means we hold no rank consistent with that quartile. The document count is what Scopus indexed that year, which can be lower than a journal's full output. Source: SCImago Journal Rank 2025 edition, from Scopus data (scimagojr.com, CC BY-NC).
Journal of the Indian Chemical Society is Q2 in 2 of its 5 Scimago subject categories (2025 edition; best category Inorganic Chemistry: Q2, #42 of 85), with SJR 0.475 (Scimago) and an h-index of 51 (OpenAlex). Listed in Scopus, Web of Science.

Frequently asked
Is Journal of the Indian Chemical Society a predatory journal?
Our screening does not flag Journal of the Indian Chemical Society. That is not a guarantee of quality — it means the venue is not on Beall's archive (frozen since 2017) and does not match our name-pattern heuristic. It is listed in Scopus, Web of Science, which is a positive signal.
Is Journal of the Indian Chemical Society indexed in Scopus or Web of Science?
Per our venue index, Journal of the Indian Chemical Society appears in: Scopus, Web of Science. Index membership changes over time — confirm on the index's own site before relying on it.
What is the impact factor of Journal of the Indian Chemical Society?
Papers in Journal of the Indian Chemical Society are cited about 3.3 times each within two years of publication, and Scimago places it in Q2, with an h-index of 51. Those are the open equivalents: the Clarivate Journal Impact Factor is a proprietary metric we neither compute nor license, so we show the two-year citation rate and Scimago quartile instead — they answer the same question of how heavily the journal is cited. A citation rate is a property of a field as much as of a journal.
What Scimago quartile is Journal of the Indian Chemical Society (Q1, Q2, Q3, or Q4)?
In the Scimago Journal Rank 2025 edition, Journal of the Indian Chemical Society is Q2 in 2 of its 5 subject categories and Q3 in the other 3. By category: Inorganic Chemistry: Q2, #42 of 85; Organic Chemistry: Q2, #99 of 210; Electrochemistry: Q3, #42 of 64; Drug Discovery: Q3, #92 of 161; Physical and Theoretical Chemistry: Q3, #97 of 191. Its best category quartile is Q2. Quartiles split the journals in a subject category into four equal groups by SJR, so Q1 is the most-cited quarter and Q4 the least; Journal of the Indian Chemical Society is cited about 3.3 times per paper over two years, with an h-index of 51.
What is the Web of Science (JCR) quartile of Journal of the Indian Chemical Society?
The Web of Science quartile comes from Clarivate's Journal Citation Reports (JCR), a proprietary product we neither license nor compute — so we cannot state a JCR quartile for Journal of the Indian Chemical Society. The open equivalent is its best Scimago quartile, Q2 in Inorganic Chemistry and 1 other category, derived from Scopus citation data. Because JCR ranks against Web of Science and Scimago against Scopus, the two can differ, so check Clarivate's site directly if you need the JCR quartile specifically.
Is Journal of the Indian Chemical Society open access?
Our index records its access status as "hybrid". Where this is derived from publisher-level signals rather than works-level data it is a heuristic, so confirm on the journal's own site — particularly if an article processing charge matters to you.
