Delete Notability is not inherited. No doubt this label has released material from notable artists but Wikipedia is not a platform for promotion and topics must be notable in their own right. I am unable to locate any references that meet the criteria for establishing notability. Lots of references that are PR or mentions-in-passing based on announcements or artists launching albums but nothing else. Topic fails WP:NCORP and GNG HighKing++ 14:02, 6 September 2019 (UTC)

- Strong Keep, notable record level in Bangladesh.
(The Daily Star describes the company as "one of the top record labels of the country".)That line is certainly promotional and has removed from the article. -Ibrahim Husain Meraj (talk) 06:17, 7 September 2019 (UTC)
- Response If it is notable, there should be lots of references that meet the criteria for establishing notability. Where are they? HighKing++ 18:26, 8 September 2019 (UTC)
- Delete - Nothing out there meets WP:ORGCRIT. While the Daily Star appears to have editorial oversight, the articles about the company there are brief mentions or one that looks more like a bio you would find in Bloomberg which certainly doesn't qualify as significant or in-depth coverage. --CNMall41 (talk) 19:01, 7 September 2019 (UTC)
- Keep. Probably notable WP:COMPANY. according to this source [1 2 3 here]. Based on these sources I think generally this article pass on WP:GNG. a large number of notable song albums in Bangladesh, published by this record label. this article should not be deleted, Thanks.--Nahal(T) 08:27, 9 September 2019 (UTC)
- Response No doubt that a record label will release albums - maybe even a notable album or an album recorded by a notable artist - but it doesn't follow that the record company is therefore notable and notability isn't inherited. References should also have an journalist attributed as the author of the article yet none of those references have one. Leaving that aside, this Daily Star reference (1) contains no information on the company and discusses upcoming albums marking Eid, both the songs and the artists. Notability isn't inherited - fails WP:CORPDEPTH. This RTV Online reference has the same problem - nothing is said about the company and the entire album discusses the released albums and the artists. Also fails WP:CORPDEPTH. Finally, this somoynews.tv reference says nothing about the company and lists the upcoming releases announced by the company. Fails WP:CORPDEPTH.

- Delete - no significant coverage in multiple reliable sources per WP:ORGCRIT, WP:GNG - the sources cited, even The Daily Star article, are about the artists recorded and not about the company itself - no "overview, description, commentary, survey, study, discussion, analysis, or evaluation" required by WP:CORPDEPTH - notability can't be inherited from the artists recorded, the company itself must receive significant coverage and in this case there is none available - Epinoia (talk) 01:49, 13 September 2019 (UTC)
- Delete. Not seeing sources beyond mentions in passing and rewritten press releases. WP:NOTYELLOWPAGES, etc. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 13:24, 13 September 2019 (UTC)
