I prodded it with the following rationale: "The coverage (references, external links, etc.) does not seem sufficient to justify this article passing Wikipedia:General notability guideline and the more detailed Wikipedia:Notability (companies) requirement. " It was deprodded by creator, User:Kiranbramakrishna , with no rationale (through he did leave a response on my talk ( User_talk:Piotrus#Proposed_Article_for_Deletion_-_CaratLane)). Unfortunately, I do not consider the sources sufficient. The Hindu short article is half-quoted from the company's CEO statement, and the other half-reads like a PR release - no surprise, as it paraphrases him. Business Standard article just has one para about the company - it simply notes that four companies, including this one, collected some amount of funds. Nothing special, regular coverage not sufficient to make the company encyclopedic. Half of the sources, anyway, focus on the same event ("Caratlane raises $31M in Series D round from Tiger Global") and seem to be rehashes of the same original press release. As for VCCircle, I don't really see how it qualifies as a reliable source; it seems to me more like a PR-outlet. As I discussed in my Signpost Op-Ed, this is a good example of Yellow-Pages like company spam. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 03:11, 7 September 2015 (UTC)
All the above data put together I believe there are enough reasons for them to have their page, as they’re not just another company – but one of the biggest online diamond retailers here. I believe that this is a case for cleanup rather than an outright deletion.
