This would be fine in DRAFT space, but creator moved in despite ' decline, so we're here. There is no evidence that this school is notable. Incubate in draft space until such time as notability is established with independent, reliable sources. Star  Mississippi  01:26, 13 April 2022 (UTC)

 * MBA Institute pages are very relevant for a large number of B-School aspirants in India. Keep - The article looks unbiased and serves all guidelines 122.169.6.163 (talk) 11:24, 13 April 2022 (UTC) — 122.169.6.163 (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
 * Delete: as per nom. And, the content should be merged to Symbiosis International University. - Hatchens (talk) 01:53, 13 April 2022 (UTC)
 * SIMS, Pune is an independent Business School under the Symbiosis International University . Similar B-Schools like Symbiosis Institute of Business Management Pune and Symbiosis Institute of Business Management Bangalur u (constituent colleges of SIU ) have their individual pages on Wikipedia. Merging Symbiosis Institute of Management Studies Pune with Symbiosis International University would lead to confusion. Suggestion is Keep. Pryi1499 (talk) 08:32, 13 April 2022 (UTC)

 * The references come from internationally reputed Indian publications and are properly cited. Suggest Keep Vishal.Negi7 (talk) 08:03, 13 April 2022 (UTC)  — Vishal.Negi7 (talk&#32;• contribs) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.
 * Delete or Merge - An article should speak for itself and explain why the subject is notable, and this article does not, except as a branch of the university, which has its own article.
 * The originator appears to be trying to game the system by moving the draft into article space after it was rejected, without discussing with the reviewer.
 * The status of other business schools is irrelevant, as other stuff exists, a deprecated argument. (Nominate them for deletion also).

Relisting comment: Seems like an even split between deletion, merger and draftifying. Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Liz Read! Talk! 01:37, 20 April 2022 (UTC)

 * Keep Article needs a bit of clean-up, but it does appear to be a notable topic. There's this coverage from the Hindustan Times and this from the Indian Express. It's also interesting that the Indian Defence Minister gave a lecture about war and terrorism there in 2018, suggesting it is a fairly important institution.

 * Several Indian central government leaders have given talks at the Institute including the defence minister, Road Transport minister and former Railways minister, seems quite notable . - Keep.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 103.165.168.36 (talk) 18:47, 21 April 2022 (UTC)  — 103.165.168.36 (talk) has made few or no other edits outside this topic.


 * KeepThe institute definitely seems notable, though the article needs editing to meet MOS:LEAD guideline. I will be happy to edit if it says.--Trolli Onida (talk) 23:20, 22 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Pryi1499 and Vishal.Negi7 are sock puppets of Priyashi1599. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 04:50, 24 April 2022 (UTC)
 * shocked. Utterly shocked! I was waiting for a little more to file an SPI, so thanks for handling. Star   Mississippi  22:03, 24 April 2022 (UTC)
 * Delete The sources cited by AusLondonder do not, in my opinion, support the claim of significant independent coverage. The first was an interview with an administrator.  The second read like a puff piece written entirely from the school's press release. Rockphed (talk) 23:41, 27 April 2022 (UTC)
