The document summarizes the corporate governance failure at Satyam Computer Services. Satyam was founded in 1987 and became one of India's largest IT companies before a major accounting scandal emerged in 2009. It was revealed that the accounts were falsified and the company's cash balances were inflated by billions of rupees. The scandal severely damaged investor confidence in India's corporate governance practices. Eventually, Satyam was acquired by Mahindra Group in 2009 in an effort to restore its reputation and operations. The Satyam scandal highlighted the need for stronger legal compliance, auditing practices and oversight of corporate boards in India.
