My baby is 1 month old. I came to my hometown after 15days of his birth.. It's 42 to 45 C is the temperature in my hometown. Is it ok to keep him in AC room. If yes, what is the temperature I can maintain for my baby.

A healthy baby weighing more than 2.5kgs can be kept at temp as low as 18deg C.
So you can use AC as per your comfort.

Babies are comfortable in temperatures at which you are!
Do keep the AC on,at a temperature you are comfortable in,just make sure the baby is NOT directly underneath the airflow.
