Dormant since 2019, Cobrapost has zero journalistic credibility and a 100 per cent track record of agenda-driven stings". The group alleged that the publication was "a deliberate campaign of calumny, disinformation, and character assassination of Reliance Group, Anil Ambani and 55 lakh shareholders aimed at crashing the stock prices, and engineering panic in stock markets to acquire Reliance Group assets".
