The NSSO conducts regular consumer expenditure surveys as part of its "rounds", each round being normally of a year's duration and covering more than one subject of study. The surveys are conducted through household interviews, using a random sample of households covering practically the entire geographical area of the country. Surveys on consumer expenditure are being conducted quinquennially on a large sample of households from the 27th round (October 1972 - September 1973) onwards. Apart from these quinquennial surveys, the NSSO collected information on consumer expenditure from a smaller sample of households since 42nd round (July 1986 - June 1987). Nowadays every round of National Sample Survey (NSS) includes a consumer expenditure survey, giving rise to an annual series of consumption data. The National Sample Survey Office has been regularly carrying out the survey on consumer expenditure covering all India as part of National Sample Survey (NSS). The field operations of the 54th NSS round started on 1st January 1998 and continued up to 30th June 1998. The household consumer expenditure schedule, used for the survey, collected information on quantity and value of household consumption with a reference period of "last 30 days" for some items of consumption. Household consumer expenditure is measured as the expenditure incurred by a household on domestic account during a specified period, called reference period. It includes the imputed values of goods and services, which are not purchased but procured otherwise for consumption. In other words, it is the sum total of monetary values of all the items (i.e. goods and services) consumed by the household on domestic account during the reference period. Any expenditure incurred towards the productive enterprises of the households is also excluded from household consumer expenditure. To minimize recall errors, a very detailed item classification is adopted to collect information, including items of food, items of fuel, items of clothing, bedding and footwear, items of educational and medical expenses, items of durable goods and other items. The schedule has also collected some other household particulars including age, sex and educational level, etc. of each household member. The schedule design for the survey is more or less similar to that adopted in the previous rounds. India The survey covered the whole of the Indian Union except Ladakh & Kargil districts of J & K, 768 interior villages of Nagaland situated beyond 5 kms. of the bus route and 195 villages of A & N Islands which remained inaccessible throughout the year. - households - members of the household Sample survey data [ssd] The scope of the study includes: - Household characteristics - Cash purchase and household consumption of food, pan, tobacco and intoxicants during the last 7 days - Cash purchase and household consumption of fuel and light during the last 30 days - Monthly household consumption of clothing and footwear - Household expenditure on miscellaneous goods and services and rents and taxes during the last 30 days - Annual household expenditure on education and medical (institutional) goods and services - Monthly household expenditure on medical (non-institutional) goods and services - Monthly household expenditure for purchase and construction (including repairs) of durable goods for domestic use - Perception of households regarding sufficiency of food A stratified sampling design is adopted in this round. The first stage units are census villages ( panchayat wards in case of Kerala) in the rural sector and the NSSO Urban Frame Survey (UFS) blocks in the urban sector. The ultimate stage units are households in both the sectors. Sampling frame for first stage units (a) Rural : The lists of census villages of 1991 population census (1981 census list for J & K) constitute the sampling frame for the rural sector. For Kerala, however, the list of panchayat wards has been used as the sampling frame for selection of panchayat wards in the rural sector. For Nagaland, the villages located within 5 kms. of a bus route constitute the sampling frame, whereas, for Andaman & Nicobar Islands, the list of accessible villages constitutes the sampling frame. (b) Urban: The lists of latest UFS blocks have been considered as the sampling frame for all cities and towns. Stratification (a) Rural: At first, the following three strata (namely strata types 1, 2 & 3) are formed at the level of each state/u.t.:- Stratum 1: list of uninhabited villages (as per '91 census). stratum 2: villages with population 1 to 50 (including both the boundaries) stratum 3: villages with population more than 15,000 Strata types 1, 2 & 3 above are formed provided there are at least 10 villages in each of the strata types in the state/u.t. as per 1991 population census. Otherwise, these villages are included in the general strata as described below: After formation of the strata types 1, 2 & 3 (wherever applicable), the remaining villages of the state/u.t. are considered for formation of general strata. Each district with population less than 2 million as per 1991 census forms a separate stratum (however, district having a population of 2 million or more is divided into a number of strata as per usual procedure followed in NSS). For Gujarat, some districts cut across NSS regions. In such cases, the part of a district falling in an NSS region forms a separate stratum. (b) Urban: Strata are formed within NSS region by grouping towns. Face-to-face [f2f] The data for this survey is collected in the NSS Schedule 1.0 used for household consumer expenditure. For this round, the schedule had the following blocks: Blocks 1 and 2 - are similar to the ones used in usual NSS rounds. These are used to record identification of sample households and particulars of field operations. Block-3: Household characteristics like, household size, principal industry-occupation, social group, land possessed, primary source of energy used for cooking and lighting etc. have been recorded in this block. Block-4: In this block detailed demographic particulars including age, sex, educational level, marital status, number of meals usually taken in a day etc. has been recorded. Block-5: In this block cash purchase and household consumption of food, pan, tobacco and intoxicants during the last 7 days have been recorded. Block-5.1: In this block cash purchase and household consumption of fuel and light during the last 30 days have been recorded. Block-6: Monthly household consumption of clothing has been recorded in this block. Block-7: Monthly household consumption of footwear has been recorded in this block. Block-8 : Household expenditure on miscellaneous goods and services and rents and taxes during the last 30 days has been recorded in this block. Block-8.1 : Annual household expenditure on education and medical (institutional) goods and services has been recorded here. Block-8.2 : Monthly household expenditure on medical (non-institutional) goods and services has been recorded here. Block-9 : Monthly household expenditure for purchase and construction (including repairs) of durable goods for domestic use has been recorded here. Block-10 : Perception of households regarding sufficiency of food has been recorded here. Block-12 : Summary of household consumer expenditure has been recorded here.

Each sub- sample is drawn by the same sampling scheme and is capable of providing valid estimates of the population parameters. The comparison of sub-sample wise estimates shows the margin of uncertainty associated with the combined sample estimate. Interpenetrating sub-samples have been used in NSS (i) to obtain valid estimates from each sub-round (season) of the survey round, and (ii) to ensure that Central and State samples for any State/ UT cover independent and equally valid samples of units.

It was ensured, by suitably setting survey dates for sample FSU's, that equal numbers of schedule type 2 households were surveyed in different weeks of each month. Schedule type 1 was canvassed in fsu's with odd sample village/block number (item 13 of block 1) and Schedule type 2 was canvassed in fsu's with even sample village/block number.

If neither the originally selected household nor the substituted household could be surveyed i.e., if the sample household was a casualty, code '3' would be recorded. In such cases only blocks 0,1, 2, 13 and 14 will be filled up and on the top of the front page of the schedule the word 'CASUALTY' will be written and underlined. 1 Original household surveyed 2 Substitute household surveyed 3 Casualty (nothing surveyed) Reason for substitution Reason for substitution Reason for substitution Reason for substitution Reason for substitution Reason for substitution Reason for substitution : For the originally selected sample household which could not be surveyed, the reason for its becoming a casualty will be recorded against this item in terms of the specified codes. 1 Informant busy 2 Members away from home 3 Informant non-cooperative 9 Others Time taken to canvass schedule Time taken to canvass schedule Time taken to canvass schedule Time taken to canvass schedule Time taken to canvass schedule How much time was taken to canvass schedule? Date of survey Date of survey Date of survey Date of survey Date of survey Date of survey Household size Household size Household size Household size Household size How many members are there in the household? The size of the sample household i.e., the total number of persons normally residing together (i.e., under the same roof) and taking food from the same kitchen (including temporary stayaways and excluding temporary visitors) will be recorded against this item. This number will be same as the last serial number recorded in column 1 of block 4. Household : A group of persons normally living together and taking food from a common kitchen constitutes a household. The word "normally" means that temporary visitors are excluded but temporary stay-aways are included.Thus a son or daughter residing in a hostel for studies is excluded from the household of his/her parents, but a resident employee or resident domestic servant or paying guest (but not just a tenant in the house) is included in the employer/host's household. "Living together" is usually given more importance than "sharing food from a common kitchen" in drawing the boundaries of a household in case the two criteria are in conflict; however, in the special case of a person taking food with his family but sleeping elsewhere (say in a shop or a different house) due to space shortage, the household formed by such a person's family members is taken to include the person also. Each inmate of a mess, hotel, boarding and lodging house, hostel, etc. is considered as a single-member household except that a family living in a hotel (say) is considered as one household only; the same applies to residential staff of such establishments. Household size : The size of a household is the total number of persons in the household. NIC Code NIC Code NIC Code NIC Code NIC Code Which industry are the members of the household working in? The description of the principal household industry-occupation will be recorded in the space provided. The right hand side of item 2 has been divided into two lines. The appropriate three digited industry code of the NIC 1987 will be recorded in the first line and the relevant occupation family of the NCO 1968 will be entered in the second line. To determine the principal household industry-occupation, the general procedure to be followed is to list all the gainful occupations pursued by the members of the household excluding those employed by the household and paying guests (who in view of their staying and taking food in the household are considered as its normal members) during the one year period preceding the date of survey, no matter whether such occupations are pursued by the members in their principal or subsidiary (on the basis of earnings) capacity. Out of the occupations listed, that one which fetched the maximum earnings to the household during the last 365 days preceding the date of survey would be considered as the principal household occupation. It is quite possible that the household occupation, thus determined as the principal one, may be pursued in different industries by one or more members of the household. In such cases, the particular industry out of all the different industries corresponding to the principal occupation, which fetched the maximum earnings, should be considered as the principal industry of the household . In extreme cases, the earnings may be equal in two different occupations or industry- occupation combinations. By convention, in such cases, priority will be given to the occupation or industry-occupation combination of the senior most among the participating members. For households deriving income from non-gainful activities only, a dash (-) may be put against this item. NCO Code NCO Code NCO Code NCO Code NCO Code What is the occupation of the members of the household? Household type Household type Household type Household type Household type The household type code based on the means of livelihood of a household will be decided on the basis of the source of the household's income during the 365 days preceding the date of survey. For this purpose, only the household's income (net income and not gross income) from gainful employment will be considered; but the incomes of servants and paying guests will not be taken into account.

Whether or not the household belongs to scheduled tribe or scheduled caste will be indicated against this item in terms of the specified codes. 1 Scheduled Tribe 2 Scheduled Caste 9 Others Land possessed code Land possessed code Land possessed code Land possessed code Land possessed code How much land does the household own? The area of land possessed will include land 'owned', 'leased in' and 'neither owned nor leased in' by the household but exclude land 'leased out'. The total land area possessed by the household as on the date of survey will be worked out and recorded against this item in code. 01 less than 0.01 hectares 02 0.01 to 0.20 hectares 03 0.21 to 0.40 hectares 04 0.41 to 1.0 hectares 05 1.01 to 2.00 hectares 06 2.01 to 3.00 hectares 07 3.01 to 4.00 hectares 08 4.01 to 6.00 hectares 09 6.01 to 8.00 hectares 10 greater than 8.00 hectares 99 Invalid Percapita expenditure Percapita expenditure Percapita expenditure Percapita expenditure Percapita expenditure Household consumer expenditure : The expenditure incurred by a household on domestic consumption during the reference period is the household's consumer expenditure. The household consumer expenditure is the total of the monetary values of consumption of various groups of items namely (i) food, pan (betel leaves), tobacco, intoxicants and fuel & light, (ii) clothing and footwear and (iii) miscellaneous goods and services and durable articles. Monthly per capita expenditure (MPCE) : For a household, this is household consumer expenditure over a period of 30 days divided by household size. A person's MPCE is understood as that of the household to which he/she belongs. Dwelling unit Dwelling unit Dwelling unit Dwelling unit Dwelling unit What is the dwelling unit status of the household? Is it owned, hired or anything else? 1 owned 2 hired 3 no dwelling unit 9 others Dwelling unit : This item refers only to the dwelling unit or the actual residence of the sample household. The dwelling unit may be an entire structure or may be only a part of a structure. Type of dwelling Type of dwelling Type of dwelling Type of dwelling Type of dwelling What is the type of dwelling unit? Is it an independent house or flat or anything else? A dwelling unit may be in a chawl or bustee, or an independent house or a flat. Applicable code for each type of dwelling will be entered against this item. 1 Chawl / Bustee 2 Independent house 3 Flat Type of structure Type of structure Type of structure Type of structure Type of structure What kind of structure the dwelling unit has? Is it katcha or semi-pucca or pucca? The structures have been classified into three categories, namely, pucca, semi-pucca and katcha on the basis of materials used for construction. 1 katcha 2 semi-pucca 3 pucca Covered area Covered area Covered area Covered area Covered area How much is the covered are of the dwelling unit? This will be the sum of the floor areas of all the rooms, kitchen etc., and covered and/or uncovered verandah of the building. The area will be recorded (to nearest integer) in square meters. The verandah will mean the space adjacent to rooms (both living and other)which is used as an access to the rooms of the dwelling unit. Verandah will not, however, cover a passage or a corridor used mainly as an access to the dwelling unit itself. A verandah covered on four sides by walls with a roof above, is a covered verandah. But the verandah not surrounded by walls on four sides is an uncovered verandah, irrespective of whether there is a roof or not.

If any member of the household has taken meals from outside, with or without payment, during last 30 days preceding the date of enquiry, code 1 will be recorded against this item, otherwise code 2 will be entered. 1 Yes 2 No Ceremony performed Ceremony performed Ceremony performed Ceremony performed Ceremony performed Does the household perform any ceremony? Ceremonies are performed to solemnize some events of life, e.g. birth, marriage etc. Members of a household may have to perform some religious rites consequent upon the death of a person. For various religions, faiths, there are some days in a year which are observed with ceremonial performances like offering puja, prayer, ritual performances etc. Some of such ceremonies may be performed by household members as required under the social/religious customs without incurring expenditure for entertaining guests. On the other hand, some households may spend some amount of money for entertaining guests with meals which are considered as an essential part of the ceremonies performed by them. Code 1 will be entered in the box space provided against this item if at least one ceremony had been performed by the household during the last 30 days preceding the date of enquiry, and code 2 will be entered if no such ceremony was performed by the household. 1 Yes 2 No Purchase from ration shop Purchase from ration shop Purchase from ration shop Purchase from ration shop Purchase from ration shop Does the household purchase things from ration shop?

Principal Status Usual Activity. Principal Status Usual Activity. Principal Status Usual Activity. Principal Status Usual Activity. Principal Status Which industry has the member of the household usually worked in during the last one year? In the first instance the broad principal usual activity of the person will be identified based on the various activities pursued by the person during the reference period of last 365 days adopting a relatively long time (or major time) criterion, not necessarily for a continuous period. The broad principal usual activity status will be one of the three categories viz. 'employed' (working), 'unemployed' (available for work) or 'not in labour force' (neither willing nor available for work). It is to be noted that in deciding this, only the normal working hours available for pursuing various activities need be considered, and not the 24 hours of a day. The broad principal usual activity status will be obtained on the basis of a two- stage dichotomous classification depending on the major time spent. Persons will be classified in the first stage into (i)those who are engaged in any economic activity (i.e., employed) and/or available for any economic activity (i.e. unemployed) and (ii) who are not engaged and not available for any economic activity i.e. the persons will be first classified as those in the labour force and those not in the labour force depending on in which of these two statuses the person spent major part of the year. In the second stage, those who are found in the labour force will be further classified into working (i.e., engaged in economic activity or employed) and seeking and/or available for work (i.e., unemployed) based on the major time spent. 11 worked in household enterprise (self employed) as an own account worker 12 worked in household enterprise (self employed) as an employer 21 worked in household enterprise (self employed) as ‘helper’ 31 worked as regular salaried/wage employee 41 worked as casual wage labour in public works 51 casual wage labour in other types of works 81 seeking work and available for work 91 attended educational institution 92 attended domestic duties only 93 attended domestic duties and was also engaged in free collection of goods, tailoring, weaving, etc. for household use 94 recipients of rent, pension, remittance, etc. 95 not able to work due to disability 96 beggars, prostitutes, etc. 97 others 99 not properly reported The usual activity status relates to the activity status of a person during the reference period of 365 days preceding the date of survey. The activity status on which a person spent relatively longer time (major time criterion) during the 365 days preceding the date of survey is considered the principal usual activity status of the person.

Principal NIC code Which industry has the member of the household worked in during the last one year? For the persons categorised 'working' (i.e., those with status codes 11-51), the corresponding 'industry section' will be recorded in terms of the specified codes. The codes are ; description code agriculture, hunting, forestry & fishing ................. 0 mining and quarrying ..................................... 1 manufacturing .............................................2/3 electricity, gas and water ................................ 4 construction .............................................. 5 wholesale and retail trade, restaurants & hotels ...........6 transport, storage & communication services ................7 financial, insurance, real estate and business services ....8 community, social & personal services ......................9 agriculture, hunting, forestry & fishing 1 mining and quarrying 2 manufacturing 3 manufacturing 4 electricity, gas and water 5 construction 6 wholesale and retail trade and restaurants and hotels 7 transport, storage and communication 8 financial, insurance, real estate and business services 9 community, social & personal services Usual Activity. Subsidiary Status Usual Activity. Subsidiary Status Usual Activity. Subsidiary Status Usual Activity. Subsidiary Status Usual Activity. Subsidiary Status Which industry has the member of the household worked in subsidiary capacity during the last one year? For each person listed in this block, it has to be ascertained whether he or she worked in a subsidiary capacity during the 365 days preceding the date of survey or not; in other words, whether he or she had a subsidiary economic usual status. This has to be ascertained for all the three broad categories of persons initially classified as 'employed', unemployed' and 'not in labour force'. To illustrate, a person categorised as working and assigned the principal usual activity status 'self-employed' may also be engaged for a relatively shorter time during the year as casual wage labour. In such a case, he will be considered to have worked also in a subsidiary capacity(i.e.,having a subsidiary economic status which is different from the principal status). On the other hand, a person may be self-employed in trade for a relatively longer period and simultaneously also engaged in agricultural production for a relatively minor time. In such a case, the principal usual activity status will be 'self-employed in trade' and subsidiary economic status, 'self-employed in agriculture'. Similarly, persons categorised as 'unemployed' or 'not in labour force' on the basis of 'relatively longer time' criterion might have pursued some economic activity for relatively shorter time during the year. In all the above cases, they will be treated to have had subsidiary economic usual status. It may be noted that engagement in work in subsidiary capacity may arise out of two situations : (i) a person may be engaged for a relatively longer period during the 365 days in one economic activity/non-economic activity and for a relatively shorter period in another economic activity; (ii) a person may be pursuing one economic activity/non- economic activity almost throughout the year in the principal status and also simultaneously pursuing another economic activity for relatively shorter time in a subsidiary capacity. 11 worked in household enterprise (self employed) as an own account worker 12 worked in household enterprise (self employed) as an employer 21 worked in household enterprise (self employed) as ‘helper’ 31 worked as regular salaried/wage employee 41 worked as casual wage labour in public works 51 casual wage labour in other types of works Usual Activity.

Subsidiary NIC code Which industry has the member of the household worked in subsidiary capacity during the last one year? For all persons engaged in any 'work' in subsidiary capacity, the status codes of the economic activities pursued by them in their subsidiary capacity will be recorded and the corresponding 'industry section' codes will be recorded in next column. In the situation where a person has been found to have pursued more than one economic activity during the last 365 days in his or her subsidiary capacity, the activity on which more time has been spent would be considered for recording entry in this column. Columns are to be filled in for each and every member of the household irrespective of whether the person's principal status is economic activity or not. For those reporting no subsidiary economic activity, 'X' may be recorded in both the columns. agriculture, hunting, forestry & fishing 1 mining and quarrying 2 manufacturing 3 manufacturing 4 electricity, gas and water 5 construction 6 wholesale and retail trade and restaurants and hotels 7 transport, storage and communication 8 financial, insurance, real estate and business services 9 community, social & personal services Weekly Activity. Status Weekly Activity. Status Weekly Activity. Status Weekly Activity. Status Weekly Activity. Status Which industry has the member of the household worked in during the last 7 days? The current weekly activity status of a person will be the activity status obtaining for a person during a reference period of seven days preceding the date of survey. Irrespective of the usual activity pursued by a person, his/her current weekly activity will be determined strictly on the basis of the activities pursued by the person during the reference period of seven days preceding the date of survey adopting the priority criterion. Even for self-employed persons, one need not prejudge and take for granted that the current activity situation for them will be identical with the usual activity situation. A careful probe on the part of the investigator regarding the various activities pursued by the person during the seven days preceding the date of survey is, therefore, necessary for ascertaining his/her current weekly activity status. In defining the 'activity status', it has already been mentioned that the activities are grouped broadly into three categories, namely : (i) working, (ii) not working but seeking and/or available for work, and (iii) neither working nor available for work. According to the priority criterion, the status of ' working' gets priority over the status 'not working but seeking and/or available for work' which in turn gets priority over the status of 'neither working nor available for work'. In the category, 'not working but seeking and/or available for work', the status 'seeking' gets priority over the status of 'not seeking but available for work'. A person would be considered 'working (or employed)' if he/she while pursuing any economic activity had worked for at least one hour on any one day during the week preceding the date of survey. A person would be considered 'seeking and/or available for work (or unemployed)' if during the reference week no 'work' was done by the person but he or she had made efforts to get work or had been available for work during the reference week though not actively seeking work, in the belief that no work was available. A person who had neither worked nor was available for work will be considered to be engaged in non-economic activities (or not in labour force). 11 worked in household enterprise (self employed) 12 worked in household enterprise (self employed) as an employer 21 worked in household enterprise (self employed) as ‘helper’ 31 worked as regular salaried/wage employee 41 worked as casual wage labour in public works 51 casual wage labour in other types of works 61 did not work due to sickness though there was work in household enterprise 62 did not work due to other reasons though there was work in household enterprise 71 did not work due to sickness but had regular salaried/wage employment 72 did not work due to other reasons but had regular salaried/wage employment 81 sought work 82 did not seek but was available for work 91 attended educational institution 92 attended domestic duties only 93 attended domestic duties and was also engaged in free collection of goods, tailoring, weaving, etc. for household use 94 recipients of rent, pension, remittance, etc. 95 not able to work due to disability 96 beggars, prostitutes, etc. 97 others 98 did not work due to sickness (for casual workers only) 99 not properly reported Weekly Activity NIC code Weekly Activity NIC code Weekly Activity NIC code Weekly Activity NIC code Weekly Activity NIC code Which industry has the member of the household worked in during the last 7 days?

How many days has the member stayed away from home during the last 30 days? The number of days for which the member 'stayed away from home ' during the 30 days preceding the date of enquiry should be recorded here. A continuous absence from home for 24 hours will be reckoned as a 'day stayed away'. That is, the entry will be made in completed number of days and any fraction of a day will be ignored. The location of the place where the person stayed, having been away from his/her own household, may also be within the same village/town and staying away will not only mean physical absence but also non- participation in food consumption from his/her own household. No. of Meals per day No. of Meals per day No. of Meals per day No. of Meals per day No. of Meals per day How many meals does the household usually take every day? The number of meals consumed by a person is usually reported as 2 or 3. In rare cases, one may come across a person who may be taking food only once in a day or more than three times a day. While in the former case the number of meals for the person will be 1 per day, in the latter case, however, only 3 should be entered. That is, in this column, the recorded number of meals taken in a day, even if it is reported to be higher, should not exceed 3. A breast-fed baby does not directly share the food consumed by members of the household. Hence for such babies the entry in this column will be '0'. Meal A 'Meal' is composed of one of more readily cat able (generally cooked) items of food, the usual major constituent of which is cereal food. The meals consumed by a person twice or thrice a day provide him/her the required energy of (calorie) and other nutrients for living and for pursuing his/her normal avocations. A 'meal' as opposed to 'snacks ' as opposed to 'snacks', 'nasta' or 'high tea' , contains larger quantum and variety of food. In rare cases, a full meal may contain larger quantity of non-cereal food. Even that, if the total quantum of food in plate is heavy as a meal, the contents of the food plate will also be considered as a real. Sometimes the contents of a 'nasta' may not be very different from the contents of a 'meal'. The difference in quantity will there be the guiding factor for deciding whether the plate is to be led as a 'meal ' or a nasta.

Number of meals taken outside home on payment and at home during last 30 days preceding the date of survey, for each member of the household will be recorded here. There are schools/balwadis etc., which provide standard food to all or some students as midday meal, tiffin etc., free or at subsidised rate. Such meals are to be considered as meals taken away from home. If such food is received free it will be recorded in column "Meals (School)" . Meals received at subsidised rate will be recorded in column "Meals (Payment)". There are institutions which provide canteen facilities to their students. Students can purchase food of their choice and to their requirements from those canteens on payment. In such cases also entry will be made in column "Meals (Payment)".

Sometimes meals are provided by the employer. These may be as perquisites or as part of wages in kind. These meals are generally consumed at the place of work and are to be considered as meals taken away from home. It may not be rare that meals provided by the employer are brought home by the employees and consumed there. Such meals are also to be considered as meals taken away from home. In this column the number of such meals received and consumed during the reference period by an individual member will be recorded.

For the purpose of making entry in column "Meals (Payment)". 'Meals received on payment' will mean that the informant has to incur some expense or part with a certain portion of his salary/wage for getting the meals. Meals purchased from hotel, restaurant or an eating house will be considered as 'meals taken away from home on payment' and will have to be counted also for making entry in column "Meals (Payment)".

Each sub- sample is drawn by the same sampling scheme and is capable of providing valid estimates of the population parameters. The comparison of sub-sample wise estimates shows the margin of uncertainty associated with the combined sample estimate. Interpenetrating sub-samples have been used in NSS (i) to obtain valid estimates from each sub-round (season) of the survey round, and (ii) to ensure that Central and State samples for any State/ UT cover independent and equally valid samples of units. The samples surveyed by the NSSO staff are termed as Central sample and the matched samples surveyed by State Government staff are termed as State sample.

It was ensured, by suitably setting survey dates for sample FSU's, that equal numbers of schedule type 2 households were surveyed in different weeks of each month. Schedule type 1 was canvassed in fsu's with odd sample village/block number (item 13 of block 1) and Schedule type 2 was canvassed in fsu's with even sample village/block number.

The expression 'getting two square meals a day', as is used in common parlance, conveys that the concerned person get, by and large, enough food to eat. While putting this question to the informant, it is thus presumed that the informant has a clear understanding about the meaning of it. There are equivalent phrases conveying the same meaning in regional languages. It is, therefore, important to put the proper question in the local language and record the answer given by the informant in terms of prescribed code numbers.

Each sub- sample is drawn by the same sampling scheme and is capable of providing valid estimates of the population parameters. The comparison of sub-sample wise estimates shows the margin of uncertainty associated with the combined sample estimate. Interpenetrating sub-samples have been used in NSS (i) to obtain valid estimates from each sub-round (season) of the survey round, and (ii) to ensure that Central and State samples for any State/ UT cover independent and equally valid samples of units. The samples surveyed by the NSSO staff are termed as Central sample and the matched samples surveyed by State Government staff are termed as State sample.

For various religious faiths, there are some days in a year which are observed with ceremonial performances like offering of puja, prayer, celebration of rituals etc. Such ceremonies may be performed by household members as required under the social/religious customs without incurring any expenditure for entertaining guests. On the other hand, it may happen that households have to spend some amount under different heads for the purpose of entertainment. Conventionally these expenditures are considered as an essential part of the ceremonies performed. The purpose of providing this block in this schedule is to estimate the amount of expenditure incurred by the household on these occasions under various broad groups of items e.g. food, fuel & light, clothing & footwear, misc. goods & services, durable goods etc. Hence only those ceremonies on which some amount of expenditure is involved should be listed in this block.
