Ecommerce giant Amazon on Tuesday put out a public notice in a newspaper accusing Future Retail (FRL) and its promoters of committing fraud after Reliance Industries (RIL) took over some retail stores of FRL.

In August 2019, Amazon had acquired a 49 per cent stake in Future Coupons, the promoter entity of Future Retail, for about Rs 1,500
