Earth celebrates several new years— according to the communities and cultures. Chinese have their own new year, westerns have their own, and so have the south asian like Nepal. I’m from Nepal, and there January 1 is not the equivalent date when we celebrate our New Year. And, that might be the case for other places too(Not sure about that tho).
So, which new year is the exact day when the Earth completed one revolution around the Sun?

Basically all of them. When a year starts is absolutely arbitrary — you choose a day and call that the day the year starts, and then you count 365 days from that.
It’s a bit more complex than that — you have to account for leap-time, etc, but basically there’s no “correct” first day of the year.
