It all happens bcoz of geographical location of these cities
Mumbai and Chennai lies close to equator so sun can come over head but Delhi is slightly away from equator, so sun is slightly tilted from being over head
Hope you got my point

mumbai and chennai are south of the tropic of cancer, while delihi is north of it. Due to the tilt of axis of rotation of the earth, parts of the earth north of the tropic of cancer will never have the noon sun exactly overhead. Parts to its south will have the noonday sun exactly overhead twice a year, between the time of vernal equinox in march and autumnal equinox in september
