- Delete This has sources but the independence of these is doubtful. There was a very good discussion at nomination of another page that said WP:RS is not as important as how the sources are written and what they are saying. He is a big man for sure, but doesn't seem to qualify the guidelines. Nomadicghumakkad (talk) 18:18, 31 May 2021 (UTC)
- Keep If magazines such as The Economic Times and Forbes cover him that is enough to establish notability.-- Toddy1 (talk) 07:49, 1 June 2021 (UTC)
- Comment : No opinions on this. But doesn't being a billionaire indicate that he is notable enough for an article (Considering that he is self made and made his fortune in India, where a billion dollars is a lot) ?. Jupitus Smart 17:11, 2 June 2021 (UTC)
Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.

- Delete: The sources are not giving him enough significant coverage. Just getting covered in economic times and Forbes does not make anyone notable.The subject must have significant coverage. The source from Economic times is more like an interview whereas the forbes barely gives any coverage. Poppified talk 15:49, 6 June 2021 (UTC)
- Procedural keep as nom is a sock. If any other editor wants to renominate this article to AFD please do so later. VV 15:55, 6 June 2021 (UTC)
