Ugadi falls in the first month of the Hindu calendar called:
Chaitra
Ugadi (Yugadi) is the New Year's Day of the Hindu lunisolar calendar celebrated in Andhra Pradesh, Telangana and Karnataka. It falls on Chaitra Shukla Pratipada, the first day of the bright fortnight of Chaitra, usually in March or April.
Chaitra is the first month of the Hindu calendar; the same day is celebrated as Gudi Padwa in Maharashtra. Vaishakha is the second month, while Kartika and Magha come later in the year.
Hence, Ugadi falls in the month of Chaitra.
