In the past 24 hours, 36,946 patients recovered from the disease, as per the Ministry of Health released data on Monday.

Recovery Rate currently stands at 97.35%.

India's Active caseload currently stands at 4,13,718.

Active cases constitute 1.31% of total cases.

The death toll now stands at 424773.

Even, the increase in the number of deaths left crematoriums and burial grounds overwhelmed.
