Possible DYK edit

If we can find more sources for the Malabar Hill water tank, we could have a potential DYK here. --Rsrikanth05 (talk) 11:46, 18 March 2012 (UTC)Reply

Small Dilemma edit

Small Dilemma. What country do we specify? The founder [Shapoorji] was Indian, his son [Pallonji] was Indian, but acquired Irish citizenship, while, his son [Shapoor] is Indian again. The company is based in India and is privately held. --Rsrikanth05 (talk) 11:49, 18 March 2012 (UTC)Reply

User:AroundTheGlobe gave me this. Cyrus Mistry's entrepreneurial legacy. It gives a lot of info about the history, but I still cannot get an exact date of when the company was founded. --Rsrikanth05 (talk) 11:51, 19 March 2012 (UTC)Reply

Images edit

I can get an image of a construction site for SPCL. Is that okay? --Rsrikanth05 (talk) 13:40, 18 March 2012 (UTC)Reply

DYK nomination edit

Afcons edit

A quick glance at the Afcons website tells you that they've built some cool stuff including a lot of the viaducts and tunnels for DMRC as well as Kolkata Metro tunnel. They've also built the KR Puram hanging bridge, which I have photographed and uploaded to the Commons. Cable Stayed Bridge at Krishnarajapuram. Image? --Rsrikanth05 (talk) 09:36, 24 March 2012 (UTC)Reply

Proposed merge with Joyville Homes edit

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section. A summary of the conclusions reached follows.
The result of this discussion was Redirect Joyville Homes to Shapoorji Pallonji Group. It has been a while since a merge was proposed and consensus seems to be that Joyville Homes is not notable by itself, but merits a single line mention in the target article. As that is already present, there is nothing to merge and I am closing this as a redirect. In case Joyville Homes becomes notable in the future it may be recreated as a separate article. --Lemongirl942 (talk) 15:47, 26 June 2016 (UTC)Reply

The Joyville Homes sub-brand is not of encyclopaedic notability in itself but can be mentioned on the parent company page. AllyD (talk) 08:07, 5 February 2016 (UTC)Reply

  • Support as the current state of the article does not prove notability. Anarchyte (work | talk) 08:57, 5 February 2016 (UTC)Reply
  • Support More of a redirect here with a single line mention IMHO. --Rsrikanth05 (talk) 09:24, 5 February 2016 (UTC)Reply
