Abstract
The present study has investigated the open access friendliness of top Indian academic institutions
that have been ranked in the National Institutional Ranking Framework (NIRF) 2020. Open access
friendliness has been measured based on two areas: i) the OA publication area and ii) the use of a
license in OA publications. The present study has analyzed, over the last ten years, a total of
6,04,586 primary publication data (2010–2019). The data carpentry tool, named OpenRefine, has
fetched the open access status of the institutional publications. The indicator assessed the selected
institutions' open access friendliness. The final OAF ranking shows that 36.63% (n=37) of
institutions have an OAF score above 50 and OAF scores ranges from 36.51 at the lowest to 74.99
at the highest. The overall OA share for top 100 institutes in India in the given publication time
frame is 23.73%.
