Weather in Delhi in September

September in Delhi is a hot month. Plan the serious walking for morning. The rest of the day wants shade and a slower pace.

In India, this is how Delhi actually wears September, not how a country centroid would. Compared with June and January, September sits in the middle of Delhi's year.

What to expect

Daytime

Hot days in Delhi. Ruins, markets and hills are a morning job. Midday sightseeing is how people remember September for the wrong reason.

Nights stay warm. Air-con, if you can get it, is part of the brief. A jumper for September in Delhi is almost always a waste of bag space.

Rain

September is a wetter month in Delhi. Showers are part of the deal, not a spoiled surprise.

Waterproof shoes matter more than a rain plan for a beach, especially if a beach is not why you came. Build indoor hours into the afternoon.

Evening

Evenings stay warm.

What to pack

  • Sun protection

  • Rain jacket
