Hi, thanks for message. I deleted your article because
- The article was a copyright violation. Copyrighted text is not allowed in Wikipedia, as outlined in this policy. That applies even to pages created by you or your organisation, unless they state clearly and explicitly that the text is public domain. The copied page asserts Copyright © 2015 The Bombay Store, All Rights Reserved. There are ways to donate copyrighted text to Wikipedia, as described here; please note that simply asserting on the talk page that you are the owner of the copyright, or you have permission to use the text, isn't sufficient. But in any case the copyrighted text is far too promotional to be useful for Wikipedia's purposes, so there would not be any point in your jumping through all the hoops that are required.
- it did not provide independent verifiable sources to enable us to verify the facts and show that it meets the notability guidelines and was only referenced to its own website
- it was written in a promotional tone. Articles must be neutral and encyclopaedic. Just one example of unsourced claims presented as fact: quite popular especially among the people who look for elite and exquisite items. People do come from far- away places to the store for the novelties. The brand in also quite known to International tourists seeking a souvenir to remind them of the destination or a gift for friends and family back home. The Bombay Store has always been visited by some of the prominent personalities since its establishment
- Contact details for the stores are inappropriate and spammy
- it's all about what the company sells, little about the company itself other than locations. How many employees? Turnover? Profits?
- You have an obvious conflict of interest when it comes to editing articles about this subject. If, after reading the information about notability linked above, you still believe that your organisation is notable enough for a Wikipedia article (and that there is significant coverage in reliable, independent secondary sources), you could, if you wish, post a request at Wikipedia:Requested articles for the article to be created. See also Wikipedia:Best practices for editors with conflicts of interest.

- To use your website material, you need to change your website so that content is clearly marked as public domain, which you are unlikely to want to do, or look here to see how to donate the text. However, the text is too promotional to be acceptable, so better to write from scratch in your own words. Bear in mind that the copyright issue is only one of the problems listed above, you need proper references and an encyclopaedic neutral tone for the article to survive Jimfbleak - talk to me? 12:37, 18 June 2015 (UTC)
