Shri Ram Murti Smarak International Business School

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

This article appears to fail the notability for organizations guidelines. There are 466 colleges affiliated with the Uttar Pradesh Technical University and there is little independent evidence of notability for this business college in the article or available on Google and none on Google News. This private college offers a PGDM (post-graduate diploma in management) but not an MBA. Currently the references provided are generic and do not establish a case against the general notability guidelines. There may be a better (certainly easier) case for an article about the SRMS group of colleges. Earlier PROD (and improvement templates) removed so raising for wider discussion.

Note, rather than a 'free-standing' college of education, this organization is a private business school in turn part of the private group of educational companies managed by Shri Ram Murti Smarak Trust. The PGDM course is affiliated with the University, presumably by having associate lecturers on loan. Consequently the most appropriate interpretation of notability can be found at OUTCOMES in the bullet point called Departments or degree programs with WikiProject Universities/Article guidelines providing similar guidance that there is no assumption of automatic notability for such organizations.
