Here is chart of the elevation angle of the Sun at the SLIM landing site until the end of this month.

After Jan 31, the long cold solar night will begin, which SLIM is not designed to last.

Unlike Chandrayaan-3 which landed in the south polar region, SLIM's location is close to the equator and hence the sun elevation angle will be quite high during local noon.
