Satyam Computers founder and chairman Ramalinga Raju has resigned from the company’s board.
In a letter to the board members, Raju said that the company’s balance sheet has inflated cash and bank balance of Rs 5,040 crore.
“No board member had any knowledge of the real situation. Accrued interest of Rs 376 crore in books is non-existent. Rs 1,230 crore was arranged to Satyam, but was not reflected in the books,” he said.
In response to Raju’s disclosures, the stock was hammered badly by investors, and it lost more than 65 percent.
