Giving some hope to crisis-ridden Satyam, the World Bank has said it could review the eight-year ban imposed on the company provided the software exporter takes "corrective action".
A World Bank official said Satyam has to show it has again become a responsible vendor to do business with. "The vendor would have to demonstrate (that) corrective action had been taken to address the original causes of the ... Ineligibility," a World Bank official from Washington said in an emailed statement.
The official said action should substantiate that Satyam is "again a responsible vendor with whom the Bank can do business".
The World Bank banned Satyam Computer Services for eight years in 2008 for providing "improper benefits" to Bank staff and for failing to maintain records relating to fees charged for sub-contractors.
Satyam has a strong case for a review of the ban since its old board and management have been changed.
