The real news, inflated

A true filing, with one number changed. The hardest kind to spot.

What it looks like (invented example)

KAVERI POWER ko ₹4,200 crore ka order mila hai! (Filing: ₹420 crore.)

How it works

  1. 1

    A real company announcement is picked up.

  2. 2

    The number is inflated, or the date or counterparty changed.

  3. 3

    Because part of it is true, people stop checking.
