Yes I Today saw Infosys coming up with details of the cash deposits to show up that they have the real money and not fake .. it shows a sign that the Clients may be loosing faith in the indian companies as there turnover and profits are concerned.. And it will effect the IT market if Satyam falls or decides big layoffs coz we dont c many jobs arround in the current market trend and if 50K more guys will be added to the market it will do no good to Indian IT

I say no. Whatever has happend in the recent past in satyam computers will not change the image of India. Window dressing happens everywhere in India. Its not uncommon thing though we see the implications of the act from the perspective of largeness of the company, the statements, the awards, the clients, the employees and the India's image as such. Window dressing should not happen, however, unfortunately it happens in many cases. Many fraud cases could not even be followed up with the hectic procedures, stake holders and many other things and its true and its not a vague statement. Corporate frauds happen not only in India, but, in many other countries. We can easily find out the issues as to why the companies were able to so easily resort to fraud and cover up the entire thing in its financial statements. The reason is very simple. No auditor will be able to look into all the documents and papers and there may not be any true auditing or auditing as required. Further, the shareholders may not be able to probe into the financial results published by the company. It all happens and its not uncommon though its illegal. It will not change the Indian IT sector image at all.

When fear of law is not effective to authority then every where scam takes place and authority breaks the rules and regulation.This is shows how our laws are effective for criminals.India must be divided in state level for individual democracy and laws.Release all the mps. and cabinets member and see the result.Small family is happy family.

auditors have been given special powers to look into the true & fair view of the financial statements of a company.but today the auditors have forgotton their roles & have become mere pet in the hands of the auditees. This was bound to happen in a country where everyday we find a new money laundering scam in the newspaper. But it will heart the Indian IT prestige at a time when the U.S. is starting to feel the presure to close the outsourcing serivices. Now it has to be seen how the world reacts on this issue.

Hi Durgarao

I dont agree with the statement "that no auditor can look into all the documents" coz if that is true then why the policy says that the results need to be audited by CA/CS etc. And ceartianly it was not expected form a company like PWC

this is a bad precedent in reposing faith. investors and shareholders are duped in this long time fraud intelligently without involving the auditors and regulators

Yes, It will effect a lot. The maximum loss will be to the freshers as 53k people will be unemloyed now and clients may loose interest in India's big companies.

I agree to Pratap, it completely depends on how we take. we cannot judge the entire IT industry on the basis of one company or rather say one person. Even after the fraud at Satyam, it still holds a good image and is successful in retaining most of its clients, just because of the quality of work. So it should definitely not affect the IT industry as a whole.

I don't really think so it would have a long term impact.... but yes clients would be more cautious while evaluating a particular vendor to give projects.

and this declartion by infy about its cash reserves is one such proactive step to soothen down the nerves and instill confidence of clients and investors in India and aborad [i like this].

and BTW, if theres propblem at one place doesn't mean that all the places are bad.

it may have negative impact for a shortwhile but the satyam episode has opened up the eyes of monitoring bodies to be more vigilant and such problems will not occur in future. All problems are opportunities to improve upon.

Why Not .... there is no rationale behind forcing someone not to do an event which is harmless instead its spreading love.
Thanks Sumitra... and I have embeded the vid
Its basicly coz plp see others as threat and want to be on top they do things like this so If you do your job properly and you yourself don't do politics you can get away.
