Satyam's Media Information

HYDERABAD, India, September 23, 2008: Satyam Computer Services Ltd. (NYSE: SAY), a leading global consulting and IT services provider, announced today that it has opened a development center in the Pune Special Economic Zone at the Rajiv Gandhi InfoTech Park, Hinjawadi. The 475,000 square-foot facility will eventually accommodate 4750 associates. Currently, several hundred Satyam employees are working at the site, helping global automotive companies and financial services institutions enhance their customer service via enterprise application and business intelligence optimization projects.

Satyam now has 30 development centers in India and another 19 around the world. Its growing development capabilities are part of a trend.

“Our investment in this development center is further indication that the country is emerging as an innovation leader,” said Virender Aggarwal, Head of Satyam’s APAC and MEIA regions. “It is also an indication that Pune is becoming India’s next IT hub.”

This state-of-the-art facility, which Satyam leases from DLF, features cutting-edge networking equipment. It also is equipped with ample backup power, which will eliminate technical disruptions to operations. Moreover, in building the center, Satyam paid particular attention to its employees’ well-being. Because the SEZ is a considerable distance from downtown Pune, the facility provides transportation for all associates. It also features a multi-cuisine, multi-vendor cafeteria that accommodates 500 people at a time, as well as an executive dining designed for entertaining customers. Additionally, it has a well-equipped gymnasium, recreation center and meditation room.

SBI Life Insurance, Managing Director and Chief Executive Officer, Uday Sankar Roy inaugurated the facility at a ceremony, “Pune is emerging as one of the fastest growing InfoTech hubs of the country, challenging biggies like Bangalore and Hyderabad. I am confident it would soon become a prime claimant for the ‘Silicon Valley of India’ position. Overall strengthening of IT Infrastructure, through such state- of- the- art facilities built by Satyam, will help our country sustain its global leadership in IT.”
