The document summarizes the Satyam accounting scandal that occurred in India in 2009. It describes how Satyam Computer Services was founded and grew successfully, but in 2008 its chairman Ramalinga Raju confessed to fudging Satyam's accounts for many years by inflating cash and bank balances, understating liabilities, and other fraudulent activities. This led to investigations, the resignation of Raju and others, and the government taking control of Satyam. Eventually, Tech Mahindra acquired Satyam and renamed it Mahindra Satyam, replacing the board and auditors. While Mahindra Satyam is now under new management, it still faces challenges from the fallout of the scandal.

CONCLUSION
In conclusion, Tata Consultancy Services will go down in history as one of the
world’s most
innovative companies that have changed the way people go about their lives.
With
technology comes innovation, and Tata Consultancy Services has proven that it
can be
technologically innovative with all of the great products that we haveseen from
them over the years. Given the companies’ strategies, core competencies,
dynamics
and innovativebreakthroughs, itis no wonder Tata Consultancy Services has
lasted this long, and
will be around for many years to come. Being a technology savvy person, I
believe this is one of the few places where technology truly meets innovation, and
therefore, it makes me wantto be a part of it.
