Clearly fails WP:GNG. He is the owner of a non-notable educational institution. Additionally, the books he wrote aren't notable. The article mostly promotes his institution and courses, and all of the sources given are sponsored posts. 𝙳𝚛𝚎𝚊𝚖𝚁𝚒𝚖𝚖𝚎𝚛 𝚍𝚒𝚜𝚌𝚞𝚜𝚜 06:05, 7 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Comment: There are multiple news sources in the article covering the subject, the coaching and the startup. "and all of the sources given are sponsored posts" is incorrect. Krayon95 (talk) 14:38, 7 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Almost all sources have disclaimers, and all this content is distributed by ANI/PNN to all other news websites. ANI/PNN is a leading PR and news distribution company in India. Tomorrow, I will post a detailed review of all sources. 𝙳𝚛𝚎𝚊𝚖𝚁𝚒𝚖𝚖𝚎𝚛 𝚍𝚒𝚜𝚌𝚞𝚜𝚜 17:59, 7 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
If possible, please draftify, so can improve later. Krayon95 (talk) 06:02, 9 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I believe that this subject does not adhere to Wikipedia's notability guidelines, so there is no valid reason to consider it for draftification. 𝙳𝚛𝚎𝚊𝚖𝚁𝚒𝚖𝚖𝚎𝚛 𝚍𝚒𝚜𝚌𝚞𝚜𝚜 11:52, 9 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Delete - Non of the sources given show notability. I've given a detailed analysis of the sources below -- Sohom (talk) 21:09, 8 August 2023 (UTC)[reply]
Analysis of sources
- gkhub.in gkhub.in is not a reliable/idependant source
- aninews.in This is press release propagated via ANI News, not indepedent coverage.
- bhaskar.com 1 This is again a press release, not independant
- businessworld.in Same ANI press release/PR as aninews.in, not independant
- balotratimes.com I have never come across balotratimes.com, however, reading through this article first few does not inspire confidence in its impartiality, I would assume this is some sort of content written by somebody associated with (a pupil of) the subject
- bhaskar.com 2 These are a bunch of press releases talking about donations/good deeds during the COVID-19 times, I don't see a mention of the subject?
-timeofindia.com There is one fleeting mention of the platform created by the subject, I don't see how this is indepedent significant coverage.
- economictimes.indiatimes.com This doesn't seem to about the subject itself (It is behind a paywall so I cannot read all of the article)
- mid-day.com mid-day.com is unreliable, and the story is clearly labelled "partnered content", definitely not independant
- vccircle.com I don't think vccircle.com is a reliable outlet in this context. Also, this does read a lot like company PR, since it heavily leans on "the company says so" instead of relying on their own editorial voice "The company did this"
- expresscomputer.in This is also a press release, not independant coverage
- cnbctv18.com This article is mostly a list of press releases from various companies.
- bhaskar.com 3 This is not related to the subject at all
