Thirty-five entities set up by Satyam's founder along with family alleging in appropriation of accounts have claimed charges worth Rs 1,230 crore against the company.
In January 2009, Satyam founder Chairman B Ramalinga Raju had admitted to the accounting fraud at the IT firm, which was termed as India's own Enron scam. However, soon after that government stepped in for setting up a new board, following which Tech Mahindra bought 46 per cent stake in Satyam through a formal public auction process.
As per the merger deal, both the companies’ boards had proposed a swap ratio of 2:17. This means for every 17 shares held in Mahindra Satyam, shareholders will get two shares in Tech Mahindra.
