Today Satyam board made announcement of new CEO. AS Murty will be new CEO of Satyam. Murty was global business head of Satyam. Board also announces Homi Khusrokhan and Partho Datta as special advisors. Satyam got a loan of 600 Cr as working capital from banks.

In between it is believed that Satyam has paid employees salary for january month from a cash balance available at company, this makes clear that company had cash balance. I suspect from day 1 since Raju'c confession that Satyam already had a cash balance & Raju diverted it to his infrastructure company Maytas over last 3-4 years. Company was never running in loss, it is profit making company. If company were making losses how Raju able to pay salary of 53000 employees over so many years? According to some sources Satyam requires 200 Cr per month to pay salary of employees. This couldnot be possible for loss making company to bear that much manpower. So it is clear that Raju siphned money.

I don't know when investigation result will be out, why it is taking too long time to unreveal true story. And now SEBI is investigating Raju behind bars. It already have investigated Raju last 2 days, still they have 2 more days left to investigate him. Meanwhile market has taken it negatively and Satyam share cracked down from 61 to 46 in last 3 trading sessions. Poor investors again got stuck, some of them have bought shares above 100/-, they are suffering all this loss unnecessarily. I think SEBI might announce open offer auction in this counter as early as possible so that investors wont suffer anymore loss further.
