Swati Bharadwaj-Chand | TNN

Hyderabad: A year after theMahindras acquired thescam-hit Satyam, the new pro-moters have steered the com-pany back into revival mode,but the woes of the companyare far from over.

Mahindra group vice-chairman Anand Mahindraputs up a brave face, sayinghe does not regret acquiringSatyam. But neither he norhis top-notch managementteam comprising MahindraSatyam chairman Vineet Nay-yar or CEO CP Gurnani, allof whom gathered along withunion corporate affairs min-ister Salman Khurshid atSatyam’s Infocity campus onTuesday to celebrate a year ofsurvival after the takeover,are willing to hazard a guessabout when the companywould go into the black.

In a bid to browbeat queriesthey cite the June 30, 2010,deadline set down by the Com-pany Law Board (CLB) forcompleting the restatement ofSatyam accounts that now

looms large over the company.But Mahindra Satyam

CEO CP Gurnani does admitit would take at least two moreyears for Satyam to recoverlost ground and start think-ing about raking in profitsonce again.

“It has been only one year(since we took over). The com-pany still needs another twoyears for it to level out onsome of its score cards tocome near to the operating

matrix that it desires to workunder. I don’t think I will beable to give you any more an-swers,” says Gurnani.

A clear indicator that theworst is far from over for thecompany is Gurnani’s warn-ing to Satyam’s associates onTuesday that over the next 12to 14 months the companywould continue to resemble a“warzone”.

A host of legal and finan-cial challenges continue to

dog the company. ThoughNayyar says confidently thatthe company will be able tomeet the timeline for the re-statement of accounts, thecompany is yet to get backcrucial documents from CBIto enable it to complete the re-statement process. This evenas many crucial documentsare also understood to havebeen destroyed by the Rajus.

The restatement of ac-counts is also proving to betough because numerous Rajufamily promoted companiesare seeking refunds of Rs1,230 crore and CBI in its sec-ondary chargesheet has al-leged that Satyam took unau-thorized bank loans worth Rs1,220 crore under Raju’s reignby forging board resolutions.Both these charges have ob-viously been repeatedly re-futed by Mahindra Satyam of-ficials saying they have foundno corresponding entries inSatyam’s books.

The company’s legal woestoo are showing no signs ofabating anytime soon. It’s law-suit with Upaid, though set-

tled for $70 million late lastyear, is back in US courts overthe issue of who will bear thetax liability arising out of thesettlement. The uncertaintyof the class action suitsslapped by US investors ofSatyam too continues to loomlarge over the already strug-gling company.

On the operations side, thecompany is battling high at-trition rates that have seen itsemployee strength dwindlefrom nearly 45,000 peoplewhen the scam broke out onJanuary 7, 2009, followingfounder B Ramalinga Raju’sshocking confessions, toaround 30,000.

The other major areawhere Mahindra Satyam,which is repositioning itselfas an integrated ICT compa-ny, continues to struggle is inrestoring customer confi-dence and generating newbusiness. After losing out over100 customers, out of over 500customers, in the aftermathof the scam, it has succeededin bagging only around 40small accounts.

New Delhi: China’s ShanghaiAutomotive Industry Corpo-ration (SAIC) is getting rep-resentation on the board ofGM India. While Slym in-sisted that it’s business asusual and he continues to runthe show, the number of ap-pointments that SAIC is plan-ning for India points out thatthe Chinese company has nointention of remaining a merestakeholder, but wants to havea more aggressive say in the

running of operations. GMand SAIC, that run a series ofJVs in China, had in Decem-ber last formed an all-new50:50 joint venture in HongKong to support expansioninto emerging markets. Thisnew JV had also got charge ofGM India, which till then wasa wholly-owned subsidiary ofGM Corp (US).

SAIC will be making anumber of appointments atGM India, the most importantof them being a leadership po-sition — believed to be joint

MD — who will work alongwith Slym in running the op-erations. Importantly, this sen-ior official will not report toSlym but will report to thenew board.

Slym sought to dispel ap-prehensions that the entry ofSAIC officials would lead tochanges in the managementand working style at GM In-dia. “There are no plans tochange the organisationalstructure and the companywill continue to function likealways,” he said.

At the time of announcingtheir new JV in December,SAIC chairman Hu Maoyuanhad said: “Changes in theworldwide economy have cre-ated new opportunities inemerging markets... By lever-aging our individual assetsand those of our China jointventures, SAIC and GM are ina strong position to introducecompetitive products outsideChina that will satisfy theneeds of consumers in Indiaand other high-potential glob-al markets.”
