Scientific publishing Srinubabu founded the notorious
open-access publisher
OMICS Publishing Group, widely regarded as
predatory. He purchased
Pulsus Group in 2016, causing controversy and putting the future of the journals that it published into question.
OMICS Publishing Group Since 2013, American library scientist
Jeffrey Beall has used his personal blog, scholarlyoa.com, to criticise the publishing practises of
OMICS Publishing Group and its CEO Srinubabu. Through his blog, allegations were made against OMICS regarding the quality of its scientific journals and its business practises. In May 2013, OMICS Publishing Group, which had also been included on
Beall's list of predatory open access publishers, stating that they intended to sue him, and were seeking $1 billion in
damages under section 66A of India's
Information Technology Act, 2000. However, section 66A was struck down as unconstitutional by the
Supreme Court of India in
an unrelated case in 2015. Effective January 2017, Beall's list was removed from the
University of Colorado Denver website, and he shut his blogs. However, no further follow-up was made about damages of $1 billion in legal affairs. In 2016, based on Beall's allegations, the US
Federal Trade Commission (FTC) filed a lawsuit against OMICS' publishing practices, citing their detrimental effects on American publishers' loss of trade to the United States. If 10,000 articles article is published in
open access journals, the publication cost is about $10 million with an average $2000 article processing cost, depending on the open-access journal publisher's model, and if the same 10,000 articles are published under a subscription business, they can generate about $500 million annually by giving subscriptions to thousands of universities and research institutions across the world. Subscription models are followed by the majority of Western publishing companies, including
academic publishing companies of United States. Srinubabu commented on the case filed by the FTC: "The Federal Trade Commission's allegation is completely wrong... They don't know what a journal is. Don't know what peer review is. They are illiterate in this matter. But scientists are not illiterate, they know which article to publish in which journal." In April 2019, the court imposed a fine of US$50.1 million on OMICS companies. OMICS' lawyer said that this was an unfair allegation and that OMICS would sue FTC for $3.11 billion in damages, saying it had caused loss of revenue and reputation. The party announced Srinubabu as the Jana Sena candidate for the
Visakhapatnam parliamentary constituency in the
2019 general elections, but after two or three days, Srinubabu left the party and joined the
YSR Congress Party. He was appointed as state general secretary by
Telugu Desam Party in 2024. ==Philanthropic activities==
