The purnimanta month ends on Magha Purnima, Tuesday, 30 January 2029. The amanta month ends on Magha Amavasya, Tuesday, 13 February 2029.
Why do North and South India show different dates?
Both systems use the same new-moon and full-moon moments. Purnimanta months end on Purnima, amanta months end on Amavasya, so the month name shifts by a fortnight for the Krishna paksha. Festival dates are the same; only the month label differs.
