Especially impressive when taken into account that ISRO couldn't achieve the soft-landing with Chandrayaan-2 four years ago.
One of the big things they changed with this lander compared to Chandrayaan-2 was to increase the landing zone from 500mx500m to 4000mx4000m and adding more sensors and cameras to help the computer find a good landing site.
For those who didn't watch live, there was another hover phase (0 m/s descent) at 150m above the lunar surface before final commit.
