An article about an online gaming firm, with text and references mainly about investment funding and sponsorships, which fall under trivial coverage. The article was previously rejected at AfC, deleted as an expired draft, refunded at the draft creator's request, then moved into mainspace by another account without substantial change. DoubleGrazing's AfC rejection text gave a good appraisal: "Sources consist solely of routine business reporting such as raise rounds, sponsorship announcements, etc. We need to see significant coverage in multiple independent and reliable secondary sources that have chosen to write about this company of their own volition", but was not acted upon. Looking for other sources, there is a 2020 Entrepreneur India item, which is interview-based and clear when it is the company's own claims that are being repeated [1], and a DNAIndia profile piece describing the company's influencer-based model [2] but I don't see enough to demonstrate attained encyclopaedic notability.
