Senthamangalam is a state assembly constituency in Tamil Nadu, India, that was formed after constituency delimitations in 2008.{{cite web|title=New Constituencies, Post-Delimitation 2008|url=http://www.elections.tn.nic.in/forms/int3.pdf|publisher=Chief Electoral Officer, Tamil Nadu|url-status=dead|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120515102633/http://elections.tn.nic.in/forms/int3.pdf|archive-date=2012-05-15}} Its State Assembly Constituency number is 93. The seat is reserved for candidates from the Scheduled Tribes and comprises portions of Rasipuram and Namakkal taluks. It is a part of the wider Namakkal Lok Sabha constituency for national elections to the Parliament of India.{{cite web |url= http://eci.nic.in/delim/Final_Publications/Tamilnadu/Final%20Notification%20&%20Order%20.pdf |title= Tamil Nadu - Final Notification & Order |website= Delimitation Commission of India |publisher= National Informatics Centre |access-date= 28 January 2017}} It is one of the 234 State Legislative Assembly Constituencies in Tamil Nadu in India.
Prior to the 2008 delimitation exercise, the local constituency was called Sendamangalam. That, too, was reserved for candidates from the Scheduled Tribes.{{cite web|url= http://eci.nic.in/eci_main/StatisticalReports/ElectionStatistics.asp|title= Statistical reports of assembly elections|access-date= July 8, 2010|publisher= Election Commission of India|url-status= dead|archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20101005110118/http://eci.nic.in/eci_main/StatisticalReports/ElectionStatistics.asp|archive-date= October 5, 2010}}
