Anakaputhur is a neighborhood in the city of Tambaram, situated within the Chennai Metropolitan Area, Tamil Nadu, India.

It is located next to Pammal on the western side. Anakaputhur was once famous for its traditional weaving business, which has declined due to modern competition. As of 2011, the town had a population of 48,050. Formerly a municipality, it was merged into Tambaram Municipal Corporation in 2021.
