Advertisement. References do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article—that is, they do not show significant coverage (not just passing mentions) about the subject in published, reliable, secondary sources that are independent of the subject. Most of the references are company announcement/PR or paid self published. Fails WP:GNG GermanKity (talk) 03:31, 27 June 2021 (UTC)

- Uh what? None of those references are company announcements or PR or paid self published. Most of them don't have anything to do with a company but are about the government. Did you even check the references let alone do a before search? The only article about a company in there is critical of the company. One of the references is also a [https://www.business-standard.com/article/beyond-business/adil-zainulbhai-the-makeover-man-114091901141_1.html piece] in the Business Standard which provides more than significant coverage of his life and career. He is the chairman of one of the largest media conglomerates in India and his close association with Rajat Gupta is not something that would make it into an advertisement.

- Keep. In addition to the in-depth Business Standard profile ([https://www.business-standard.com/article/beyond-business/adil-zainulbhai-the-makeover-man-114091901141_1.html]), there are several other Business Standard articles with non-trivial coverage of Zainulbhai: [https://www.business-standard.com/article/economy-policy/5-things-to-know-about-adil-zainulbhai-modi-s-latest-pick-114091800147_1.html], [https://www.business-standard.com/article/pti-stories/qci-chairman-adil-zainulbhai-others-join-usispf-board-119052000517_1.html], [https://www.business-standard.com/article/economy-policy/capacity-building-commission-formed-adil-zainulbhai-appointed-as-chairman-121040200231_1.html]. There is also coverage of Zainulbhai in other sources, eg [https://www.firstpost.com/business/adil-zainulbhai-appointed-independent-director-on-ril-board-1299723.html], [https://www.livemint.com/Specials/D0mGT7nvfPrwavKIPPINmJ/This-is-not-a-book-for-only-policy-wonks-Adil-Zainulbhai.html], [https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/politics-and-nation/ex-mckinsey-india-chief-adil-zainulbhai-to-head-quality-council-of-india/articleshow/42698780.cms], [https://economictimes.indiatimes.com/news/economy/policy/Quality-Council-of-India-to-raise-quality-of-government-services-Adil-Zainulbhai/articleshow/45223919.cms].

- Keep How did the deletion nominator determine it was an advertisement and paid editing? One can see third party independent sources used at this article, if they want to? userdude has already made a good case above for the article. Kent Warfield (talk) 20:18, 9 July 2021 (UTC)
