There isnt one. Gravity is created by anything with mass - it distorts spacetime locally.
Dark energy may have antigravitational effects but its very theoretical. The simplest answer is there isnt an opposite as gravity is built in to the universe.

There is no opposite. If you mean the forces that oppose it there is air resistance, water resistance, lift, upthrust and reaction forces (when you stand on the ground the ground is strong enough to not break under you, it is pushing back against gravity, called reaction force) depending on circumstance.

There is not an opposite exactly, but there are forces that work against it, for example, in water, the upward force of upthrust can be enough to keep an object floating, or with a parachute, air resistance pushes up to slow an object down as it falls.

The opposite of gravity would be a repulsive force based on the mass of the objects in question, and increasing with the square of the distance between them. I know of no such force around here at these velocities, but it may exist at the quantum level. Good question.

Gravity is an attractive-only force (unless you have negative mass!), unlike electromagnetism. Electromagnetism can both attract and repel. Gravity has no opposite, even though buoyancy, lift in warm air, and other forces can counteract it, they are not its "opposites."

there is no opposite of gravity in the physics world.

Gravity does not have an opposite.
Gravity is an attractive force only, unlike the other fundamental forces.

well according to my understanding, gravity which implies a force which acts downwards ina fluid is the opposite to upthrust, which is a force that oppose gravity in fluids or the upward force that acts on a body in a fluid.

Technically the only correct answer to this is that we don't know, yet.
There have been various propositions regarding 'anti-gravity' by whatever name you choose.
Until its created/observed (if it ever is), the answer is still 'none at the moment'.

The equation for a gravitational field is c2 = E/m. It describes the result of a mass/energy relationship (heat energy and mass). In that the value of "c" is always linear, it is impossible for it to have a negative value.
