Ujjivan Financial Services[edit]

Explosively overspecific information of which only the company would know of course and therefore advertise about themselves, the links are themselves simply PR, republished PR, interviewed and company-supplied information, trivialness about company plans, accomplishments and services, none of which is surprising considering Indian news media is largely notorious for having "pay-for" news so there can certainly be no guarantees of non-PR involvements here, and my own searches are then actually finding exactly this, including at local news media, which explains everything that needs to be said. This is clearly a company persistently intent with keeping this advertisement considering there have been several accounts heavily involved with this account as it is. As it is, the first AfD was by far ridiculous in that it was before, in a time when advertising was taken leniently and perhaps not always so seriously as it is now.

Delete The only coverage is announcements in the press, PR pieces, company sourced interviews - there is no journalism going on with this coverage. Wikipedia is not a platform for promotion WP:PROMO. This company has failed to demonstrate any notability via coverage in independent sources or significant coverage in reliable sources. Fails WP:CORPDEPTH and fails GNG.

Delete as corporate spam; strictly promotional. Even if the subject were notable (which is unlikely per available sources), it would need to be completely rewritten. So WP:TNT applies anyway. So delete. K.e.coffman (talk) 05:26, 16 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]
