Delete No grounds asserted for notability meeting WP:BIO. Agarwal's article looks like an advertisement & promotion page of the person and his new venture, who has done lots of PR online but didn't not received any significant awards/recognition - WP:Notability. Seems a good young business person from India but not notable. Vinay089 (talk) 04:59, 25 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

'KEEP!' extremely notable. OYO Rooms has become the talk of the town, definitely noteworthy.
Comment I feel user Aayushrai98 is created only to support Agarwal's article, because of no history. I'm proceeding to report about this fake account. This activity of user Aayushrai98 makes this process more clear that Agarwal is trying to protect his article with PR. Vinay089 (talk) 06:00, 1 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Delete The article was created by an SPA and that is the first indication that someone is not notable. My personal view of this is WP:TOOSOON. Additionally, if the subject is simply the CEO of another company, then WP:NOTINHERITED applies. The claim of Forbes "30 under 30" is actually not a good claim: It is not an award but simply an article. In addition, the 30 under 30 restricts itself to "Consumer Tech" and I do not look at it as a claim of notability. The business insider article is also simply an article - an opinion of a contributor and not a recognised award. Add to that the persistent editing seeking to promote the subject and I am going with a delete. --Lemongirl942 (talk) 08:09, 3 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]
