Seems to be only notable by association. Slatersteven (talk) 08:43, 21 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I think it is notable and should not delete the article as the said person Prashant Mehata is the Managing Director and who start the company Rajesh Exports which is ranked 295th on the Fortune Global 500.

Delete per nomination. He is the MD of a notable company, but WP:Notability is not inherited. I can't find significant coverage of him online in WP:RS to support notability per WP:BIO, just passing mentions and paid profiles like the references currently cited.

Delete. I've searched, and can't find anything to make him notable independently of Rajesh Exports. I did find that the Securities and Exchange Board of India imposed a prohibition order on him in 2003, and that an arrest warrant (1, 2) was issued against him in 2013 after he had been ordered to appear before the Directorate of Revenue Intelligence and failed to do so; but IMO that doesn't pass WP:NCRIME. Fails WP:GNG and WP:NBIO. Narky Blert (talk) 11:57, 22 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]

No, but should have been in the article. So we also have the fact this is in essence whitewashing puffery as well.Slatersteven (talk) 12:09, 22 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
