India on Monday reported more than 300,000 new coronavirus cases for a 13th straight day to take its overall caseload to just shy of 20 million, as scientists predicted a peak in infections in the coming days.

With 368,147 new cases over the previous 24 hours, India's total infections stood at 19.93 million, while total fatalities rose by 3,417 to 218,959, according to the Health Ministry.

Medical experts say real numbers across the country of 1.35 billion may be five to 10 times higher than the official tally, Reuters reported.
