These items are to be filled in for the members working in the non-agricultural enterprises (i.e., for those with entries 10 to 99, but not with entry 00, in col. 5 of the block). Note that the particulars to be collected in columns 9 to 18 will pertain to the principal status (col. 3) and industry (col. 5) obtained for the person. Itemwise details follow. It is possible that the informant is, inspite of the best efforts of the investigator, unable to provide information sought from this set of items, the investigator should try to contact the concerned household member (worker) to record these information.

Note that the proprietary and partnership enterprises covered under ASI will not get codes 1 to 4. These enterprises will get code 7. Definitions of various enterprises types are given below:
Proprietary: An individual is the sole owner of the enterprise. Code 1 or 2 will be recorded for such enterprises according as the individual is a male or a female.
Partnership: Partnership is defined as the "relation between persons who have agreed to share the profits of a business carried on by all or any one of them acting for all". There may be two or more owners, belonging to the same or different households, on a partnership basis, with or without formal registration (where there is a tacit understanding about the distribution of profit among the so-called partners). Code 3 will be assigned if the partnership involves members of the same household and code 4 will be assigned otherwise.
Public sector enterprise: An enterprise wholly owned/run/managed by Central or State governments, quasi-government, institutions, local bodies like universities, education boards, municipalities etc. (An enterprise should not be treated as a public sector enterprise if it is run on a loan granted by government, local body etc.). Code 5 is to be recorded for members working in such enterprises.
Semi-public (enterprises): 'Semi-public' enterprises are those joint enterprises in which besides private shareholders, government (Central/State/local bodies etc.) also holds some shares, no matter who has the majority of shares.
Others: All other enterprises, other than those having specified codes under this item, will be covered under 'others' and code 7 will be assigned to such enterprises. These enterprises will include co-operative society, public limited company, other units covered under ASI and institutional enterprises other than those described above which are managed by public trusts or societies (other than co-operative societies), training school/institutions etc.
If the informant does not know the type of enterprise in which the household member works and the investigator is unable to collect such information inspite of his/her best efforts, code 9 will be recorded for such working member against type of enterprise.
