Many regional Hindu calendar systems and Muhurat finding rules bring New Year with Mesha Sankranti. If not the same day, then the day followed by Mesha Sankraman is celebrated as the first day of the Solar cycle year. However, the Shubh Muhurat for Sankranti-related Daan-Punya activities is considered as per its own rules through the Hindu solar calendar system. Mesha Sankranti is associated with Sankramanam, Vishu Kani, Pana Sankranti, Puthandu, Vishu, Pohela Boishakh (Naba Barsha), Vaisakh, and Bihu in various regions of India.
