Why are ahemdabad and kolkata able to see the noon sun exactly overhead twice a year but not in delhi?
This happens at any location between the Tropic of Cancer (in the north) and the Tropic of Capricorn (in the south). These lines, about 23.4 degrees to the north and south of the equator respectively, mark the farthest latitudes away from the equator where the sun can be exactly overhead [that point is sometimes called the zenith]. This region between the tropics is known as the tropical region. If you are within the tropics but not exactly on one, you will experience the sun passing directly overhead on its way to one tropic, and then you will experience this again as the sun moves toward the other tropic. It is interesting to note that the latitudes of the tropics coincide with the earth's tilt relative to the sun-earth plane called the Ecliptic.
Why do you have overhead sun only at some places in India?
The sun reaches zenith, exactly overhead, only for locations on or between the tropics of Cancer and Capricorn. If you are right on one of the tropics, the sun will be at zenith once a year. If you are between the tropics, it will happen twice a year. Any locations in India north of the Tropic of Cancer will not see the sun reach zenith.

Why do you get to see the overhead sun twice a year in bhopal but not so in lucknow?
In Bhopal, which is located at a latitude of approximately 23.2° N, the overhead sun can be seen at noon around the equinoxes (March and September) when the sun is directly above the Tropic of Cancer. In contrast, Lucknow, situated at a latitude of about 26.9° N, is too far north to experience the overhead sun at any time of the year. The sun's zenith position does not reach latitudes above 23.5° N, meaning it will never be directly overhead in Lucknow.
