The board has extended “scheme of amalgamation and arrangement of Venturbay Consultants Pvt Ltd and Satyam Computer Services Ltd and C&S Systems Technologies Pvt Ltd and Mahindra Logisoft Business Solutions Ltd and CanvasM Technologies Ltd with Tech Mahindra Ltd and their respective shareholders and creditors”, it had said.
Tech Mahindra took over the reins of the scam-tainted Satyam Computer in April 2009 and rebranded it as Mahindra Satyam.
