This Temple is situated in a place called Kumaran Kundram which is a Hillock on the rear side of Chromepet in Hasthinapuram Main Road which is again a Suburb of South Chennai. The Presiding Deity here is Lord Murugan as Bala Murugan. It is believed that He Blesses His Devotees who are Unmarried and Childless Couple. In 1956 Saint Chandrasekarendra Sarawathi Swamigal of Kanchi Mutt while on a visit to Chromepet identified the hillock and asked Devotees to construct a Murugan Temple. Hence a modern Temple for Lord Murugan was gradually constructed and it was consecrated in the year 1979. A new 5 tiered Rajagopuram has been added up successfully. There are Sub Shrines for Lord Shiva, Sarebeshwarar and Ambal. There is a Navagraha Sannadhi on the foot-hill. Devotees who come by Vehicles have to park their Vehicles on the foot hill of the Temple and have to take the few hundred steps and reach the Sanctum Sanctorum. There is no motorable ghat road yet to reach the Temple. Devotees derive great pleasure since they could circumambulate (Girivalam) the small hill. Karthigai Deepam draws enormous Devotees. The Sthala Viruksham is Peepal Tree and the Pushkarani or the Sacred Tank is known as a Kumara Theertham.
