Equinoxes are the periods when :
The sun shines equally on both Northern and Southern hemisphere
Equinoxes occur around 21 March and 23 September, when the Sun is directly overhead at the equator.
At these times the circle of illumination passes through both poles, so day and night are nearly equal everywhere and both hemispheres receive equal sunlight.
The Sun is overhead at the Tropic of Cancer and the Tropic of Capricorn at the solstices, not at the equinoxes.
The Earth is nearest to the Sun at perihelion in early January, which is unrelated to the equinoxes.
Hence, The sun shines equally on both Northern and Southern hemisphere.
