Is really Indian research journals have lower impact factors, when compared to the similar international journals?
I think that we can not to talk about lower impact factors for the Indian research journals. This refers to journals from any country.
There are journals with low and high impact factors. It can be journals of any country.
In this case, we should talk about well-known and lesser-known journals.

The reason behind low IF of Indian Journals is that most of the Indians take pride in publishing their original research papers in foreign journals.
Dear Vyacheslav,
Thank you for appreciating my observation. In India people get incentives for publishing in foreign journals. In academic job interviews young Indians are downvoted for publishing in Indian journals. The top-notched Indian scientists and academicians always prefer to publish in foreign journals. These are the reasons why Indian journals are languishing into oblivion.

Dear Atanu.
In Ukraine, the same thing.
Therefore, I share the your point of view.
Best regards, Vyacheslav.

Thank you for your question. You were talking about Indian journals but you might have been speaking about Nigerian journals without knowing it. Vyacheslav had a point there. The same pressures for maintaining required high institutional profile seem to influence most researchers across the globe.
