I cannot find sufficient reference material to sustain this article. There's a photo caption (with no other mention of the subject at all) in "Economic Times". The rest are self-published or "about the author" type blurbs. I've tried some various searches for additional references, but can find nothing aside from blogs and reprinted press releases. As such, I do not believe there is enough independent and reliable source material with which to write this article, which makes it essentially impossible to resolve its COI issues.

 * Delete Fails to meet WP:NAUTHOR, WP:ANYBIO etc especially given that the all three books she authored were self-published (no reviews in reputable publications either) and the "article in Economic Times" was a paid advertorial. Abecedare (talk) 03:59, 4 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Delete Per nom and Abecedare clearly fails WP:NAUTHOR and WP:GNG.Pharaoh of the Wizards (talk) 13:16, 4 July 2018 (UTC)
 * Keep As an Indian businesswoman, she is certainly notable. Regards, Yann (talk) 16:44, 7 July 2018 (UTC)
 * How so? She appears to work as a consultant in Hong Kong, though both the article and her web-site are super-vague about her actual activities. Johnbod (talk) 21:43, 7 July 2018 (UTC)


 * Delete per deleters - very thin details here. Johnbod (talk) 21:43, 7 July 2018 (UTC)

b) Since the publishers of these books are different, they all can't be self-published. Second Spring (may be self published), Sojourn of Life (Authors Press, who are well-known academic publisher) and Business Analysis(ANISAN Technologies) (https://www.google.com/search?q=%22sandhya+jane%22&tbm=bks&source=lnms&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjXlZ7G_pPcAhVKa94KHb-uAyAQ_AUIDygA&biw=1242&bih=563&dpr=1.1) Self-published authors must also be considered as an author as notable authors such as Virginia Wolf, E L James and many other have published their own work. c) American academic journals and ACM Digital library are beyond influence. After careful studying the links to the articles, it doesn't seems they are paid articles. d) All the new sample references are fully functional. About image searches, we found many images linked to her work.

 * Keep a) She is notable enough as an author considering her 3 books, research papers, and numerous articles. (https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/8407442.Sandhya_Jane)
 * "Since the publishers of these books are different, they all can't be self-published" makes no sense. They can. Johnbod (talk) 21:56, 10 July 2018 (UTC)
