Thermal comfort depends on one's satisfaction with the ambient temperature. The climate and people of a place determine its comfort. Mixed-mode ventilation methods are becoming more popular as an eco-friendly HVAC alternative. Using a combination of mechanical cooling and natural ventilation, mixed-mode building operations create pleasant interiors while reducing the load on the HVAC system. According to many studies, India is classified into several climate zones. Ranking Indian towns only on climatic comfort is challenging. Differences in climatic conditions and the ways in which people have adapted to those prevailing conditions, people have adapted to a unique base temperature or the neutral temperature however, the base temperature in different cities lying in different climatic condition cannot be the same. One of the most common methods for determining how hot it feels outside is to use a tool called the heat index. Steadman's model of human thermoregulation, air temperature and relative humidity are used in this method. Climate comfort is the focus of this study. By analysing Heat Index values, the Analytical approach ranked India's most comfortable cities. It has been proved that the city of Mumbai, which is in the climate zone of warm and humid with temperatures ranging from 18°C to 35°C, requires less cooling and heating in summer and winter respectively, making it the finest city in terms of Mixed mode ventilated buildings. Leh, which has a cold environment with temperatures ranging from -31°C to 13°C, requires heating throughout the year and is therefore not thermally comfortable.
