Company is also listed on Bombay Stock Exchange(BSE) and National Stock Exchange of India (NSE). See today's performance of company on BSE and NSE. --Human3015TALK 07:38, 21 October 2015 (UTC)
- Disagreed. You provided google search results. I click a couple of top ones, they are nothing but stock charts: [1]. Please provide articles with significant non-routine independent coverage.]
- @Staszek Lem: What do you mean by "independent"? The Economic Times and The Hindu are largest selling and most respectful dailies of India. I gave that chart which show they are listed at Bombay Stock Exchange means it is highly notable company. I provided google search because it was having so many independent coverage so I decided to give google search, you clicked just top 2 sites but you should look beyond. Still I will provide some [2], [3], this news provieds list of all news on ET of Shoppers stop. The Hindu, The Hindu, Times of India calling it India's "prominent retail group, NDTV, Rediff, Chandru Raheja is owner of Shoppers Stop and he is listed at 31st position in list of Indian billionaires at Forbes and forbes also talks about his company shoppers stop in same news. This is what I got on quick search. I can keep going on.--Human3015TALK 18:42, 21 October 2015 (UTC)
- You are correct they are independent. Now look at the two other bolded words. Pleas keep in mind that press-releases, interviews, descriptions of current operation status, etc. are routine coverage which is not counted towards notability in wikipedia. Every company churns press-releases and other promotional stuff nonstop. ]
- With your definition there should not be any company related article on Wikipedia. You seem to be in mode of denial. Actually this AfD should be speedy close as keep. But anyway, I have given more than enough sources of India's leading news papers and also Forbes. One of above source of Economic Times listed Shopppers Stop at 238th place in India's top 500 companies list. Forbes listed Company's owner as 31st richest Indian. Company itself listed at Bombay Stock Exchange (BSE) to which you seem to be not much aware. BSE is same for India what New York Stock Exchange on Wall Street is for USA. BSE is among top 10 stock exchange markets in the world. This company has been the case study in management schools. Read it.[1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8] --Human3015TALK 20:39, 21 October 2015 (UTC)

Keep 14000 employees, $ 290 Million revenue and coverage in acceptable media is sufficient to keep. But the article should be improved, it is written like an advertisement. Wikienglish123 (talk) 16:36, 2 November 2015 (UTC)
