Weather in Delhi in April
April in Delhi is the hard heat. Outdoor plans belong to the ends of the day. The middle is for indoors or water.
In India, this is how Delhi actually wears April, not how a country centroid would. Compared with June and January, April sits in the middle of Delhi's year.
Pack for Delhi in April, not for a brochure that was photographed in another season.

What to expect
Daytime
Fierce heat in Delhi in April. Start early. Hide in the middle. Come out again when the sun drops.
This is not a month for a packed walking itinerary. Water, shade, and a schedule that admits the climate is in charge.
Rain
Rain is not the story in Delhi in April. Pack for sun. A shower would be news, not a plan.
Do not build the trip around weather windows. Build it around shade if it is hot, and around getting outside if it is not.
Evening
Evenings stay warm.
What to pack
