Vanity piece on a non-notable person, sources cited are all primary, churnalism, or offer only passing mentions, and a search finds nothing better. Already draftified once, but copypaste moved to main space by the creator, hence here we now are at AfD. Fails WP:GNG / WP:ANYBIO. -- DoubleGrazing ( talk) 11:26, 27 July 2022 (UTC)

- Please refer to the sources and the awards he has received. Honorary doctorate is given to a person who has made a significant contribution to the social development of the state and nation. I would like to add more sources and his achievements if needed. Ramkumar592 ( talk) 11:38, 27 July 2022 (UTC)— Ramkumar592 ( talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
- Delete Sourcing, oh, sourcing! If he had just owned a few more lorries, but he doesn't own enough of them for notability and doesn't have enough coverage for notability. Fails WP:GNG. Best Alexandermcnabb ( talk) 13:33, 27 July 2022 (UTC)
- Keep All the references are reputed news sites of India. Subject is indeed a notable person. — Preceding

- Only some of the sources are "reputed news sites", but they don't provide significant coverage. Others are primary sources. And just saying that someone is "indeed notable" doesn't make it so. -- DoubleGrazing ( talk) 05:35, 28 July 2022 (UTC)

- Keep Even though articles do not mention him exclusively, numerous credible sources available in his name. Passes WP:GNG WP:BIO. Honorary doctorate is awarded by universities to recognize outstanding achievement in a particular field, or service. So notable enough.Srinivas B A 07:02, 29 July 2022 (UTC)— Preceding unsigned comment added by Srinivas Bangalore ( talk • contribs) — Srinivas Bangalore ( talk • contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
- Delete A closer look at the references has failed to establish notability. KSAWikipedian ( talk) 17:04, 1 August 2022 (UTC)
- Delete: WP:TOOSOON, with no SIGCOV in reliable sources. Young head of a notable company, and son of a notable businessman, but WP:Notability is not inherited. No indication of the notability of the awards he's received, and honorary doctorates alone don't confer notability of a person. Storchy ( talk) 12:26, 2 August 2022 (UTC)
