The government is likely to soon give its nod to the Serious Fraud Investigation Office (SFIO) for initiating prosecution against the persons involved in the Rs 7,800 crore-accounting fraud at Satyam Computer Services. The ministry of corporate affairs is in consultation with the law ministry and will take a decision on filing cases in the Satyam […]
Holding global auditors Price Waterhouse guilty of wrongdoings in the multi-crore Satyam scam, the Serious Fraud Investigation Office has informed the government that the bookkeepers were involved in falsification of accounts of the IT firm. Detailing the role of Price Waterhouse partners in the scam involving thousands of crores of rupees, the probing arm of the Corporate Affairs Ministry has concluded after a three month long investigation that the auditors kept silent despite knowing about the failure of the IT firm’s audit system in 2007.
Serious Fraud Investigation Office has invited applications from Chartered Accountants empanelled with the office of C&AG and who may like to be associated with SFIO for carrying out forensic examination of records of companies ordered for investigation by the government.

The Ramalinga Raju empire is much wider than what it was originally thought to be. Investigations now show that the Raju family had spawned more than 40 companies in the last 15 years. A majority of these companies — spread across 10 states — sprang up in the last four years and most of them […]
