Satyam assures clients, says 'business as usual'

Hyderabad: Customers of India's Satyam Computer Services concerned about how the firm's financial scandal will affect them are being told it is business as usual, a senior Satyam official said on Thursday.

"Of course they are concerned. I am getting so many calls," the senior official, who spoke on condition of anonymity, said.

"We are proactively addressing the customers' concerns and telling them it is business as usual." The chairman of the outsourcing company resigned on Wednesday saying that profits had been falsely inflated for years, sending the company's shares plunging nearly 80 per cent.

The managing director also resigned on Wednesday, but the senior official said there had been no other resignations.

"No major exits," he said.
