After a gap of about two years, Mahindra Satyam, earlier known as Satyam Computer, will announce the financial results for two financial years 2008-09 and 2009-10 tomorrow.
Satyam Computer had last announced its quarterly numbers for the period July-September 2008.
Following an admission of multi-crore accounting fraud by its founder and chairman B Ramlinga Raju in January 2009, the beleagured firm did not came up with audited results.
Tech Mahindra took over reins of the company in April 2009 and rebranded it as Mahindra Satyam.
The Company Law Board had given exemption to Mahindra Satyam from publishing results for two financial years.
The audited numbers which may not be very encouraging, is likely to give a clear picture about the financial health of the company.
