Contested prod. Non-notable chess player; 12 years old is too soon for an article. He has no official FIDE title; the "Arena International Master" title is awarded for online play specifically for lower strength amateurs. I can find no significant coverage in reliable sources so he fails WP:GNG. In addition I believe the creator of the article is also its subject judging by his username so an obvious WP:COI.

• Delete. The only sources in the article are two database entries. They confirm that he is a 12-year-old Indian chess player, ranked #616 in the world in his U-12 age group. None of the other claims in the article have sources, and even if they did they wouldn't make an encyclopedically notable biography. This article is premature.
