‘Infosys CEO Salil Parekh could be victim of rejig’

BENGALURU: With Infosys again marred by a controversy over a letter by whistleblowers, Infosys CEO Salil Parekh could be a victim of personal grudge, especially when there has been a major rejig in the top management level over the last couple of years, said a close aide. Seven top executives of the IT services company heading the finance, healthcare, manufacturing and consulting divisions had put in their papers after Parekh took over.

Parekh along with company CFO Nilanjan Roy have been accused of resorting to unethical practices by an anonymous group of employees alleging them of willful misstatement material accounting irregularities for the last two quarters. Infosys said the complaint has been put before the audit committee, according to the company’s practice and will be dealt in line with its whistleblowers policy.
