This is because Chennai is near oceans making it moist and cool and places near the coastal side give out cool air during nights, whereas Delhi is hot because it is not located near oceans

Explanation:

Chennai is cooler than Delhi though Chennai is nearer to the equator because Chennai is a coastal city and Delhi is an inland city.

During the daytime, the land warms up much faster than the sea; and during the nighttime, the land cools down much faster than the sea. This is because the water has higher heat capacity than land where the water takes much longer time than the land to heat and cool. This makes the land nearer the water or seas to have moderate temperature than inland regions. The sea breeze that sets in late afternoon or evening also cools down the temperature in coastal areas.

This helps to maintain the temperature moderate throughout the year in coastal areas.
