ⓘ About
A lunar month is named after the rashi the Sun (sidereal, Lahiri) is in at the new moon; a lunar month with no Sankranti is an Adhik (extra) month. North India follows Purnimanta months (Krishna paksha counts in the next month); South and West India follow Amanta. The Samvat changes at Chaitra Shukla Pratipada; Ritu follows the lunar month and Ayana the Makara/Karka Sankranti.
