Fails to meet WP:CORP as it has barely any sources available. Most of the sources are coming from stock trading profiles or the company itself. Independent sources give just a passing mention. The only article which focused on it was this. Field Marshal (talk) 07:31, 26 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

  • Strong Keep: Incredibly poor nomination WP:LISTED Editors coming across an article on such a company without such references are encouraged to search (or request that others search) prior to nominating for deletion.... Times of India [1], Business-standard [2], Bloomberg quint [3] [4] [5], Economic Times [6] [7] (all major and reliable sources in India). The company is listed on NSE. Although there is no inherent notability as per our wiki policy (that seems absurd to me especially for listed cos on our country's major exchange), the sources are more than enough for notability here. In my opinion, every single co. listed on a major stock exchange (all 1000+ listed on India's NSE) is notable by the mere fact that millions of people (small traders and retail investors to major FIIs) all have an interest in the company and it doesn't even matter if they have heard of the company, because its performance has an impact on the economy of the country. I could argue on and on, but this is not the venue. Editors need to be careful about nominating listed cos for deletion, especially if they don't have a finance background and are often so dismissive about their notability. - hako9 (talk) 06:49, 27 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Hako9: Bar perhaps one of the Economic Times sources, everything you cited is just basic routine coverage and doesn't go towards establishing notability. If you could send my MBA certificate by email that would be great. Thanks Zindor (talk) 15:56, 27 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
@Zindor: Hahaah basic routine coverage...Allow me to politely give you some free unsolicited advice. Media usually doesn't write a 25 page puff piece for a company unlike celebrities you may read in tabloids. The articles are usually to the point and concise. - hako9 (talk) 19:04, 27 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
