According to the complaint filed in the U.S. District Court for the Northern District of California the plaintiff alleges on behalf of purchasers of iGATE Corporation (NASDAQ:IGTE) between March 14, 2012 and May 21, 201, that iGATE Corporation and certain of its officers and directors violated federal securities laws pursuant to Sections 10(b) and 20(a) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and Rule 10b-5 promulgated thereunder.More specifically, the plaintiff alleges that Defendants issued allegedly false and/or misleading statements and/or failed to disclose that the Company's Chief Executive Officer and President "Murthy" was involved in an improper relationship with a subordinate employee in violation of iGATE's explicit policies to the contrary and that Murthy's improper conduct created a risk that he would be terminated from the Company, jeopardizing the Company's future success.

On May 20, 2013, iGATE Corporation announced that its Board of Directors has decided to terminate the employment of President and CEO Phaneesh Murthy. iGATE Corporation said that the Board’s decision was made as a result of an investigation by outside legal counsel, engaged by the Board, of the facts and circumstances surrounding a relationship Mr. Murthy had with a subordinate employee and a claim of sexual harassment.
