It's similar to one of the Hindu tradition upanayana celebrated by some castes. I think it is the mark of boy's transition from a kid to entering into puberty. But key point is how this being one of the Hindu celebrations is performed by Parsis who have Iran origin?. The thing is zorastrianism and Vedic religion have the same roots. Even the language old Persian called as Avestan and Vedic Sanskrit are sister languages and share same origin. Thats means ancestors or early zorastrians/parsi people and vedic/sanskrit people are same. So this Navjyote Ceremony by Parsis is not adpoted from Hindu traditions. This is their own culture. Zorastrians and Vedic religion being from same roots hence this ceremony is performed by both.
We were Zoroastrian too. Before Islam, all people of Iran, from Afghanistan and Pakistan to Turkey and from Oman sea to central Asia, were Zoroastrian. I understand some of their vocabularys. Their name are also Iranian. Parsi people have the same faces that the people of. Shiraz or Kerman or Yazd. They probably came from the center of Iran.
Parsees are the oldest community of India. The oldest hindu epic, 'Battle of ten kings', reffers a clan called 'parshu'. It was so called because they used to fight battle with parshu I.e Axe( parshu = axe). Those parshus are parsees mentioned in battle of ten kings.
It is called Nirang. By very elaborate prayers and rituals of nearly 21 days a small quantity of holy potion is collected and stored to be used in drops during spiritual ablusions in life of a Zoroatrian male female or child. For more details ask a Zoroastrian priest.

Yes dear, this is Saher Agiary compound in Mumbai. Compound is open to all community as invitee but the separate AGIARY precincts of prayer area are only entered by Zoroastrians. Limited Car parking also available in compound.
