Brower Piven, A Professional Corporation announces that a class action lawsuit has been commenced in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York on behalf of purchasers of the American Depository Shares of Satyam Computer Services Ltd. ("Satyam" or the "Company") (NYSE: SAY) during the period between January 6, 2004 through January 6, 2009, inclusive (the "Class Period").

The complaint accuses the defendants of violations of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 by virtue of the Company's failure to disclose during the Class Period that the Company inflated the amount of cash on the Company's balance sheet by nearly $1 billion, incurring liability of $253 million on funds arranged by the Company's CEO personally, and overstating Satyam's September 2008 quarterly revenues by 76% and profits by 97%. According to the complaint, after the Company's CEO, B. Ramalinga Raju, sent to Satyam's board of directors on January 7, 2009 admitting to the foregoing misrepresentations, the value of Satyam's ADRs declined by approximately 90%.

No class has yet been certified in the above action. Members of the Class will be represented by the lead plaintiff and counsel chosen by the lead plaintiff. If you wish to choose counsel to represent you and the Class, you must apply to be appointed lead plaintiff no later than March 9, 2009 and be selected by the Court.
