Consensus has been that notability is not automatic in WP:LISTED (or any other) case. Fails to meet WP:NCORP, WP:CORPDEPTH. Indian media sources, whether on or off Wikipedia, should be viewed with caution, as they often present press releases as news WP:RSNOI. Apart from that, activities like revenue targets, profit/financial reporting, turnover news, capacity expansion news etc., are merely routine coverage WP:ROUTINE, regardless of where they are published. I am nominating this page for deletion again, as the last AfD ended without a consensus and took place over two months ago. TC-BT-1C-SI (talk) 12:23, 26 April 2025 (UTC)

• Keep. I came across several independent research reports like [https://inc42.com/buzz/drone-push-jm-financial-initiates-coverage-on-ideaforge-with-buy-rating-sees-21-upside/ this], [https://hemadmin.hemsecurities.com/images/Files/IPOReviews/116P.pdf this] and [https://www.hdfcsec.com/hsl.docs/ideaForge-Technology%20Limited%20IPO%20Note-202306261057123218669.pdf this], which critically and thoroughly cover the company. In addition to this, there is also significant critical coverage surrounding the IdeaForge drone fraud case, such as [https://www.indiatoday.in/india/law-news/story/ideaforge-cfo-drone-fraud-case-court-issues-non-bailable-warrant-against-ideaforge-executive-2704509-2025-04-05 this] and [https://www.livelaw.in/high-court/madras-high-court/madras-high-court-refuse-quash-cheating-case-drone-company-sufficient-material-284117 this].

• :@Chanel Dsouza I would like to respectfully point out that the PDF reports you shared from [https://hemadmin.hemsecurities.com/images/Files/IPOReviews/116P.pdf HEM Securities] and [https://www.hdfcsec.com/hsl.docs/ideaForge-Technology%20Limited%20IPO%20Note-202306261057123218669.pdf HDFC Securities] may not be entirely independent. Both documents include disclaimers on pages 6 and 17, respectively; which clearly indicate the presence of {{tq|"potential or material conflicts of interest"}}. Also, they mention that {{tq|"the firms or their associates may have received compensation from the companies covered in the reports within the preceding twelve months"}}. Indian securities reports should be viewed with some skepticism, something I realized during Senco Gold's AFD. These reports are often prepared for internal use within portfolio management services, where the firms typically hold shares in the subject companies or try to promote a particular narrative, especially around upcoming IPOs.

• Comment: I won’t vote in this deletion discussion because the nomination and my opinion are very similar to what I said in the Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/Apar_Industries. Charlie (talk) 17:25, 30 April 2025 (UTC)
