Anti Plagiarism Software (iThenticate and Turnitin) to be discontinued from 31st March 2015 from INFLIBNET services.

Anti Plagiarism Software (iThenticate and Turnitin) to be discontinued from 31st March 2015


This is to inform all concerned that due to breach of contract by M/s iParadigm, ย provider of ย Plagiarism detection software, ie. Turnitin/iThenticate, access to these software would not continue from 31st March, 2015 onwards. M/s iParadigm is insisting on price increase that the contract does not provide for. ย They have refused to provide access to one of the two products on last year's price through INFLIBNET which we have chosen for the year 2015-16.ย ย iParadigm is planning to chargeย exorbitant increase in prices from universities directly.

Final attempt to reason with representatives of M/sย iParadigmย did not yield any result even in a personal meeting with INFLIBNET higher officials. INFLIBNET Centre is not in a position to accept any price increase as per the contract. Therefore, we are extremely sorry to inform you that ย we are left withย no option but to discontinue access to these software/tool (Ie. iThenticate/Turnitin) to the universities.

INFIBNET Centre will be trying to select a new product at the earliest throughย retendering. The Centre is also considering to get a free and open source software/tools customised to our requirement. You may also give your valuable feedback for any product which is either free or open source or made / make in India.

If university is looking for a product using their own resources, please be careful about the cost that you pay now and increasing in cost once usage increases. We encourage you to use open source / free software in public and academic interest of the nation.

Inconvenience caused in this regard is highly regretted.
