This paper presents a comprehensive analysis of the evolving landscape of open-access (OA) scholarly publications
originating from India during the period spanning 2013 to 2022. The study is grounded in meticulous data collected from the
Scopus bibliographic database. The findings illuminate a prolific scholarly output, with India contributing 477,576
publications in the open-access domain, of which 76% are under the research paper category. A discernible thematic
distribution emerges from the analysis, with Medicine emerging as the foremost area of contribution, closely trailed by
Engineering. These two domains collectively account for a substantial 30% share of the overall scholarly discourse. The All
India Institute of Medical Science (AIIMS), New Delhi, holds a dominant position among the other institutional affiliations.
The Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research emerges as a top source, with an impressive tally of 7627 OA publications.
Comparative global insights reveal the United States as a frontrunner in the open-access landscape, while India claims a
commendable 7th position in the rank. Distinguished individual contributions also make their presence known, particularly
D. Dutta from the Bhabha Atomic Research Centre (BARC) emerged as the leading prolific contributor. The Green and
Gold OA models distinctly resonate among Indian contributors, echoing the evolving paradigms in disseminating scholarly
output.
