Interviewer instructions
Column (7): source code: Consumption of an item during the last 30 days may be made out of one or more of several possible sources: namely, purchase, home produce, exchange of goods and services, gifts or charities, and free collection. The source from which the item has been obtained and consumed by the household will be recorded in code.

When a household A providing a service to another household (or an organization) receives an item of consumption as full or partial payment in kind (or as perquisite), it is a case of goods acquired (by household A) through "exchange of goods and services". This includes perquisites obtained by salary earners against the services they render to their employers or organisation. When landowning households obtain crops as crop share from cultivator households, it is also a case of goods received in exchange of goods and services.

Code 3 will be applicable if consumption is made out of both purchase and home-grown stock but not from any other sources. Any other combination of sources will get code 9. Consumption out of transfer receipts or commodities received in exchange of goods and services will also get code 9.

It is common for many households to receive part of the produce of other households (friends or relatives) as gift. From the 66th round, consumption of such produce is considered as consumption out of home produce and not as consumption out of gifts.
