Very much a CV with promotional elements. See WP:NOTPROMO. Otherwise failing WP:BIO. The sources are very much primary and read like PR. Most claims are not independent, but mentioned by the subject. The sources indicate a CEO doing his job and talking about it. Little in terms of independent, secondary coverage about the subject as opposed to what the subject talks about. pseudonym Jake Brockman talk 11:09, 14 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: I made some changes in the article and removed the promotional and adverting information to make it neutral. Now, it meets WP:GNG. Pasha1807 (talk) 14:24, 29 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for this. Some of the overly promotional wording has been removed. However promotional wording affects WP:NPOV and not WP:GNG. There still is a concern that the majority of sources are not independent (mostly PR) or connected to the firm. Other sources are about the firm, but not the subject per se. pseudonym Jake Brockman talk 15:55, 29 October 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Keep: Puneet has been covered by several mainstream media such as India Infoline, The Financial Express (India), Business Standard and he has an independent coverage on 1. He was also recognized by Aviation Week & Space Technology as "Top 40 leaders under the age of 40." That makes him enough notable per WP:Notability (people). — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2405:204:385:5F48:E39C:D420:75DC:4FA8 (talk) 13:45, 8 November 2018 (UTC) 2405:204:385:5F48:E39C:D420:75DC:4FA8 (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.

This is all PR, though, unfortunately and mostly about the firm, where he speaks on behalf of the firm, as opposed to about him. WP:ANYBIO states awards or honour should be "well-known" or "significant". I would argue that something like "40 under 40" or "30 under 30" as is listed by many organisations or magazines is not an award or honour per-se, but rather contextualised reporting. Similarly, the WEF Young Leaders are not generally considered sufficient for notability in the absence of other editorial reporting. pseudonym Jake Brockman talk 14:31, 8 November 2018 (UTC)[reply]
