Meanwhile India with a similar population to china is getting hundreds of thousands of cases daily.
I find it hard to believe China could have gotten it under control so easily.

I've got a friend who lives in China who said cases were tracked by apartment building. If a positive case was found, the entire building was locked down, and penalties for breaches were harsh.
So on one hand I can believe that given how heavy handed the Chinese govt can be, they may have gotten it under control.
On the other hand, it wouldn't surprise me if they were massively under reporting the numbers.

Yes it wouldn't be at all surprising if their numbers are inaccurate. But as you say they're inclined to clamp down very hard too, so who knows.
in order to be old & wise, you must first be young & stupid. (I'm still working on that.)
