When I got my Visa, I mentioned my wife and children as non-accompanying. After coming to Canada, I submitted application to sponsor them in September 2019.
Thus far I got the following messages
4th Oct 2019 - application received
21st Nov 2019 - received request for bio-metrics and medicals
22nd Nov 2019 - sponsorship approved
2nd Dec 2019 - application moved to New Delhi Visa office
14th Dec 2019 - Medicals Passed
No more updates since then....

With these steps completed so quickly, is there reason to believe the rest of the application will also proceed quickly instead of a whole year?
Application status online shows 8 months still pending!!

No it could still be close to a year. The initial steps are fast.
