This can be a little confusing as it depends on whether someone is referring to a calendar or a Zoroastrian calendar, but there is some consensus to celebrate on the 196th day of the calendar or 195 days after the new year. This is the first day of the month of Mehr on calendar. (Learning about the calendar can help to make remembering Persian holidays much easier since many of them correspond to the first day of a particular month.)
