Because the Earth's axis is tilted by 23.5 degrees, it only allows the sun to be overhead at some time of the year in locations between the Tropic of Cancer (23.5 deg N) and the Tropic of Capricorn (23.5 deg S). The Arctic Circle is at 66.5 deg N, so the sun is never directly overhead at any time of the year.

The tangent ray refers to either the northernmost or southernmost hemisphere where the vertical rays refers to direct sun. During the June 21 solstice, the latitude rays in the northern hemisphere would be 66.5 degrees N (Arctic Circle)
Anywhere between the Southern arctic circle and the south pole (most of Antarctica).
By exposed it to vertical rays of the sun from the spring equinox to the automn equinox.
The sun rays are on the Tropic of Capricorn on December 21 and it leads to winter in the northern hemisphere and summers in the southern hemisphere,because on December 21 there is 24 hours of daylight on the south pole, south to the antarctic circle and 24 hours of darkness on the north pole, north to the arctic circle.

When sunlight is spread equally in an area.

Srinagar (India)
The December solstice marks the official beginning of winter. The tangent rays of the sun hit the arctic circle.
There is no city in India that receives vertical rays of the sun. All receive slanting Actually there is no place on the earth that receives vertical rays of the sun. Some receive horizontal, some receive slanting and some receive very slanting.
Anywhere between the Southern arctic circle and the south pole (most of Antarctica).

Obviously the angle of incidence is different. The oblique rays spread their energy over a larger area of the surface than vertical (also called perpendicular or normal rays)
