The group has expanded horizontally into a potash mining project in Saskatchewan, Canada, an area which has one of the highest reserves of potash in the world.[15][16]

Energy[edit]

Enso Group has stake in a major gas block in Siberia, near Irkutsk.[17] The group sold its stake in Ensearch Petroleum, which had its holdings in 14 oil and gas blocks to Sahara India Pariwar in 2011.[18][19]

Enso Healthcare LLP is acting as an aggregator for manufacturing of Sputnik V and Sputnik Light vaccines in India,[20][21] for Russian sovereign fund RDIF.[22][23][24]

Infrastructure[edit]

The 12.1 km Gurgaon metro rail, called Rapid Metro Gurgaon, was created in JV with Enso Group and a consortium of DLF and IL&FS. The group exited the project, however, soon after operations began. The joint venture SPV was called ITNL Enso Rail Systems Ltd. The metro runs today and has 11 hauls.[25][26]
