The US and USSR collectively had 25 lunar mission failures (not counting successful flybys, orbiters and impactors) before Luna 9 was successfully soft-landed on the moon [1].

India's first attempt at an orbiter was successful, and their first lander mission failed only due to a software issue. I don't think there's enough data yet to say that they "find it hard" compared to the Soviets.
