Despite appearances, there is nothing to show notability here. All the references bar one [1] are either passing mentions, or don't mention the subject, or are not independent. In a WP:BEFORE search, I can find no significant coverage in reliable secondary sources that are independent of the subject as required by WP:BIO or WP:N. It's a mix of obvious paid puff pieces, press releases, churnalism, passing mentions, and doesn't-even-mention-hims. Enso Group and HFCL might be notable, but notability is WP:NOTINHERITED on Wikipedia. Conflict of interest is evident by the promotional tone and heavy use of press releases and paid content. It's basically a WP:CFORK of Enso Group, and there's very little useful, verifiable information here for a merge to that article.

See also WP:Articles for deletion/Vaibhav Vinay Maloo, which was deleted on the same grounds, even after an almighty refbombing by a strike team of sockpuppets. Storchy (talk) 10:45, 21 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Note: This discussion has been included in the deletion sorting lists for the following topics: Businesspeople and India. Storchy (talk) 10:45, 21 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete Sock puppetry and refbombs are bad signs. They only tend to happen when something isn't notable, otherwise the wiki article would have sources that are acceptable. I agree with the one source as above, but we don't have anything else that can be used for GNG. Oaktree b (talk) 14:36, 21 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delete per nom, agree there's a lack of notability here. Sources in article seem to be puff pieces.Moresdi (talk) 16:35, 21 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • ’’’Keep’’’ You guys don’t have anything else to do but delete pages on Wikipedia. I wish I could explain the irony of the moment. Do whatever you want. I find this a bit intriguing so feel like reporting your handles but can’t be bothered to learn Wikipedia so in depth. Moderators note, there are rivalries and pages under attack should make this page protected from now onwards. I don;t agree with edits and I am a part time editor, not someone who sits on this site and makes it his job. Is this to do with Russia? (talk)

Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

To summarise that list, we've got one solid article about him which appears to be from an independent, reliable source. Two others are routine coverage of the companies he works for. The rest are either passing mentions, junk, or don't even mention him. No indication of WP:SIGCOV in multiple reliable sources. Storchy (talk) 06:12, 30 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Storchy you seem to have a vendetta. Your analysis is JUNK. 2402:E280:3DB6:F8:D039:83B:6DFC:356D (talk) 07:40, 31 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
You remind me of a guy called Sunil, Storchy, in my office, he is always grumpy even if someone yells at him and tells him the truth. Also, he got paid for espionage, tsk tsk. Nuttyprofessor2016 (talk) 07:52, 31 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Had to chuck him out, called the cops on him too. Just saying, your attitude reminds me of him. Moderators please note. Here is a self made billionaire with two multi billion dollar enterprises. Nuttyprofessor2016 (talk) 07:53, 31 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]
comment : He definetly passes GNG. Other than the 3 reliable source I mentioned above, found another reliable secondary news source : https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/industry/telecom/hfcls-nahata-and-maloo-may-part-ways/articleshow/1914140.cms Jehowahyereh (talk) 05:45, 3 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
comment : User storchy's source analysis is funny and seems intentional for deleting the page. His first source analysis says that its a short news bulletin, where as its an 8 paragraph long article written by staff journalist Reeba Zachariah which is over 500 words. By telling so it can be seen as his intention is to delete the page on false claims. Also he is saying Russia Beyond launched by Rossiyskaya Gazeta is not reliable ??? on what grounds ??? It seems his only intention is the delte pages related to Maloo's . I am quoting 4 news references which are reliable and secondary sources which are vital for proving his notability

These articles itself clearly proves his notability Jehowahyereh (talk) 06:13, 3 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
