Cases have levelled off in India's two largest cities, New Delhi and Mumbai, but new hotspots continue to spring up in rural areas.
India's coronavirus caseload topped 3 million on Sunday, with the country leading the world in new infections as the disease moved through impoverished rural areas in the north and the wealthier but older populations of the south.
Health authorities reported 10,339 new cases and 912 deaths, bringing the total to 3,044,940.
The number of new infections reported on Sunday marked a sharp decline from the previous 18 days, when India had reported more than 60,000 cases daily.
Cases have levelled off in India's two largest cities, with serological surveys showing widespread prevalence among the residents of the capital, New Delhi, and financial centre Mumbai.
New hot spots continue to spring up in rural areas of the Uttar Pradesh and Bihar states in India's north, and in the southern states of Telangana, Karnataka, Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh.
India has the third-highest caseload after the United States and Brazil, and its 56,706 fatalities are the fourth-highest in the world.
