• Comment Unfortunately, as a non-Western company, easily available sources may not be adequate to the task of building an article on this company. However, as a 30 year old manufacturer of automobiles, I'd at least like to give somebody a chance to try. FrozenPurpleCube 16:14, 26 August 2007 (UTC)
• Weak delete I've looked for other information on the internet, without much luck; even the URL for a company website seems to be of no help. Any automobile manufacturer is of interest, but as with Shanti Motors I don't find anything. Mandsford 20:13, 26 August 2007 (UTC)
• Delete Does this event exist? A google hit comes up with relatively nothing. Indian companies are advanced enough to have good representation on the web. See Tata and Maruti for example Corpx 04:22, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

I don't know that I expect all companies, even today, to necessarily have a good web presence. I'd prefer somebody look up a source that actually goes out seeking information. Anybody know of any publications on the Indian Automobile industry? FrozenPurpleCube 14:58, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

Its a vehicle manufacturer we're talking about - shouldn't they be bound to have a web presence ? Here are some Indian car magazines, but I came up empty there Corpx 15:27, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

I never assume what anybody will do, but while finding presence of the web may be useful, non-presence is not always proof. It might be we just don't know the right places to look. This is especially important in this case, where the company has possibly changed names several times. FrozenPurpleCube 16:00, 28 August 2007 (UTC)

• Merge - shouldn't these recent entries just be combined into a single article on Indian auto manufacturers? --Hanging Jack 15:22, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
• Delete unless reliable third-party sources can be found. Jakew 23:44, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
