Scandal….
Cooking books of accounts

5. Ramalinga Raju, chairman
“None of the board members, past or present, had any
knowledge of the situation in which the company is
placed.”
I INFLATED (non existent) cash and bank balance of Rs
5,040 crore(as against Rs 5,361 crore) reflected in the
books.
AN accrued interest of Rs 376 crore is non-existent.
I HAVE understated liability to the tune of Rs1,230 crore in
accounts of funds arranged by me.
I HAVE over-stated debtors position of Rs 490 crore (as
against Rs 2,651 crore reflected in the books.)
FOR sept 2008, we reported Rs2,700 crore revenue and
operating margin of Rs 649 crore against actual
revenue of Rs2,112 crore and margin of Rs 61 crore.
From the confession

6. Vadalamani Srinivas, CFO
From the confession
“I was asked specifically to not look into bank statement”
AUDITOR never pointed out any “deficiencies” during
their discussions. Fixed deposits were unreal and
fictitious which were managed with an understanding
between the audit section and management.
BANK deposit were handled directly by Raju and the CFO
was specially asked for “not to look into it”
“RAJU and his brother used to take decisions and tell us
to do as instructed.”
THE CFO admitted that the account were manipulated for
about seven years.
PRIOR to quarterly board meetings, Ramakrishna,
VP,finance,would prepare the balance sheet. ”I do not
pay much attention to the details of that balance
sheet.”

7. Scenario IForgery inc
The scam team forged invoices to show
collection of revenue abroad, forged bank
statement to show inflow of money, showed
transfer of money to fixed deposits (FDs)
through forged FD receipts and reflected all
this in the final accounts. The assets and
liabilities are altered Q2Q to reflect rising
income and rig share price.
CAVEAT
This would require matching of
revenue With staff strength and salary cost. Would
also require forging of TDS certificates for income
from FDs.
POSSIBILITY
High, as there is logic and objective.
Story behind the scam

8. Next
Scenario IITrue Lies
Satyam did make money on export. Raju raised
invoices for export abroad; money did come through
the banking channels and was transferred to long
term FDs and reflected in the books. Once the FDs
were recorded in the books the deposits were
dissolved and money transferred to multiple
accounts. The books continued to reflect the FDs as
you don’t need to surrender certificate anymore.
Siphoned money was use to acquire land, property,
pay for political patronage for Maytas Infra and
Maytas properties.
CAVEAT This again require forging of TDS
certificates for accrued interest and connivance of
auditors.
POSSIBILITY Very high

9. Extreme
Scenario IIIHawala Inc
Raju receives political slush money abroad,
brings it as invoiced billings, shows it in his book
and transfers it to FDs to be dissolved latter.The
money transferred to multiple accounts is
siphoned to repatriate politicians’ money and for
funding the activities of Maytas.
CAVEAT Have to show staff strength to
match revenues or ramp up operating margins.
Besides co-opting auditors and forging TDS
certificates.
POSSIBILITY Very very high, is in sync with
whispers of pressure to pay politicians and
patronage.

12. Where is the money???

13. 1) If the company claims it has cash in its hand that
should be enough signal for the auditors to check
whether the cash in hand is available or not.
2) Bank balance has been invested properly or not-
where all it has been invested –MFs,etc.
3) Whether the internal control mechanisms are in
place.
4) Scrutinizes if the company has huge creditors and
balance at the same time.
5) Look into why the company is not taking benefits
and negotiating the price.
