Ramalinga Raju is an Indian businessman best known as the founder of Satyam Computer Services, a major IT services company based in India. He established the company in 1987, and it grew rapidly to become one of the leading IT firms in the country, providing services to clients worldwide. In 2009, Raju became embroiled in a major financial scandal when he admitted to falsifying the company's accounts, leading to one of India's largest corporate fraud cases. This scandal resulted in significant legal consequences for Raju and a loss of trust in the Indian corporate sector, prompting reforms in corporate governance practices.
