64 round of National Sample Survey : Socio-Economic Survey
Introduction:
This is the 64th round of NSS conducted from 1.7.2007 to 30.6.2008 The National Sample Survey (NSS), set up by the Government of India in 1950 to collect socio-economic data employing scientific sampling methods, will start its sixty-fourth round from 1st July 2007. The survey will continue up to 30th June 2008.
Subject Coverage:
The 64th round (July 2007-June 2008) of NSS covered the subjects of 'Employment-Unemployment and Migration', 'Participation and expenditure in Education' and 'Household Consumer Expenditure'. NSS 55th round (July 1999 - June 2000) and 49th round (January - June 1993) were the two latest rounds where migration was taken up as one of the subjects. Detailed information on education was collected in NSS 52nd round (July 1995 - June 1996), prior to which such information were collected during the 47th round of NSS (July - December 1991).
Geographical coverage:
The survey covered the whole of the Indian Union except (i) Leh (Ladakh) and Kargil districts of Jammu & Kashmir (for central sample), (ii) interior villages of Nagaland situated beyond five kilometres of the bus route and (iii) villages in Andaman and Nicobar Islands which remain inaccessible throughout the year.
Period of survey and work programme:
The period of survey is from 1st July 2007 to 30th June 2008. The survey period is divided into four sub-rounds of three months' duration each as follows:
sub-round 1 : July - September 2007
sub-round 2 : October - December 2007
sub-round 3 : January - March 2008
sub-round 4 : April - June 2008
In each of these four sub-rounds equal number of sample villages/ blocks (FSUs) was covered to ensuring uniform spread of sample FSUs over the entire survey period.

Sample Design
Outline of sample design:
A stratified multi-stage design has been adopted for the 64th round survey. The first stage units (FSU) will be the 2001 census villages (Panchayat wards in case of Kerala) in the rural sector and Urban Frame Survey (UFS) blocks in the urban sector. However, for the newly declared towns and out growths (OGs) in census 2001 for which UFS has not yet been done, each individual town/ OG will be considered as an FSU. The ultimate stage units (USU) will be households in both the sectors. In case of large FSUs i.e. villages/ towns/ blocks requiring hamlet-group (hg)/ sub-block (sb) formation, one intermediate stage will be the selection of two hgs/ sbs from each FSU.
Sampling Frame for First Stage Units:
For the rural sector, the list of 2001 census villages (Panchayat wards for Kerala) will constitute the sampling frame. For the urban sector, the list of latest available Urban Frame Survey (UFS) blocks and for non-UFS towns list of such towns/ OGs will be considered as the sampling frame.
Stratification:
Within each district of a State/ UT, generally speaking, two basic strata will be formed: i) rural stratum comprising of all rural areas of the district and (ii) urban stratum comprising of all the urban areas of the district. However, within the urban areas of a district, if there are one or more towns with population 10 lakhs or more as per population census 2001 in a district, each of them will form a separate basic stratum and the remaining urban areas of the district will be considered as another basic stratum. For a few districts, particularly in case of Tamil Nadu, if total number of towns in the district for which UFS is not yet done exceeds certain number, all such towns taken together will form another basic stratum. Otherwise, they will be merged with the UFS towns for stratification.
Sub-stratification:
Rural sector:
If 'r' be the sample size allocated for a rural stratum, the number of sub-strata formed will be 'r/4'. The villages within a district as per frame will be first arranged in ascending order of population. Then sub-strata 1 to 'r/4' will be demarcated in such a way that each sub-stratum will comprise a group of villages of the arranged frame and have more or less equal population.
Urban sector:
If 'u' be the sample size for a urban stratum, 'u/4' number of sub-strata will be formed. The towns within a district, except those with population 10 lakhs or more and also the non-UFS towns, will be first arranged in ascending order of population. Next, UFS blocks of each town will be arranged by IV unit no. × block no. in ascending order. From this arranged frame of UFS blocks of all the towns, 'u/4' number of sub-strata will be formed in such a way that each sub-stratum will have more or less equal number of FSUs.
For towns with population 10 lakhs or more, the urban blocks will be first arranged by IV unit no. × block no. in ascending order. Then 'u/4' number of sub-strata will be formed in such a way that each sub-stratum will have more or less equal number of blocks.
All non-UFS towns taken together within the district will form one sub-stratum.
Total sample size (FSUs):
12688 FSUs for central sample and 13624 FSUs for state sample have been allocated at all-India level.
Allocation of total sample to States and UTs:
The total number of sample FSUs is allocated to the States and UTs in proportion to population as per census 2001 subject to a minimum sample allocation to each State/ UT. While doing so, the resource availability in terms of number of field investigators has been kept in view.
Allocation of State/ UT level sample to rural and urban sectors:
State/ UT level sample is allocated between two sectors in proportion to population as per census 2001 with 1.5 weightage to urban sector subject to the restriction that urban sample size for bigger states like Maharashtra, Tamil Nadu etc. should not exceed the rural sample size. A minimum of 8 FSUs is allocated to each state/ UT separately for rural and urban areas. Further the State level allocation for both rural and urban have been adjusted marginally in a few cases to ensure that each stratum gets a minimum allocation of 4 FSUs.
Allocation to strata:
Within each sector of a State/ UT, the respective sample size will be allocated to the different strata in proportion to the stratum population as per census 2001. Allocations at stratum level will be adjusted to a multiple of 4 with a minimum sample size of 4.
Selection of FSUs:
From each sub-stratum of a district of rural sector, four FSUs are selected with Probability Proportional to Size With Replacement (PPSWR), size being the population as per census 2001. For urban sector, from each sub-stratum four FSUs are selected by using Simple Random Sampling Without Replacement (SRSWOR) for UFS towns and by PPSWR in case of non-UFS towns with size being the population as per Census 2001. Within each sub-stratum, samples are drawn in the form of two independent sub-samples in both the rural and urban sectors.
Formation and selection of hamlet-groups/ sub-blocks:
In case hamlet-groups/ sub-blocks are to be formed in the sample FSU, the same done by more or less equalizing population. It is ensured that the hamlet-groups/ sub-blocks formed are clearly identifiable in terms of physical landmarks.
Two hamlet-groups (hg)/ sub-blocks (sb) are selected from a large FSU wherever hamlet-groups/ sub-blocks have been formed, by SRSWOR. Listing and selection of the households are done independently in the two selected hamlet-groups/ sub-blocks to be described as sample hg/ sb 1 and 2. The FSUs without hg/ sb formation will be treated as sample hg/ sb number 1.
Schedule 25.2 (participation and expenditure in education)
The listed households will be stratified into two SSS as under:
SSS 1: households having any member of age 5 - 29 years enrolled at primary and above level
SSS 2: other households
97% of households
In the present round, Schedule 25.2 on participation and expenditure in education consists of 10 blocks. The first three blocks, viz., Block 0, Block 1 and Block 2 were used for recording identification of sample households and particulars of field operations, as practiced in previous rounds. The last three blocks, viz., Block 8, Block 9 and Block 10 were used to record the remarks of investigator/senior investigator, superintendent/senior superintendent and other supervisory officer respectively. Block 3 was for recording the household characteristics like household size, principal industry, principal occupation, household type, religion, social group, land possessed, details of household expenditure for dependants studying away from home, distance from nearest school having primary/upper primary/secondary level classes and five questions for capturing household consumption expenditure etc. Block 4 was used for recording the demographic and other particulars of all the household members. Particulars of current educational attendance and current enrolment status for household member aged 5-29 years was also collected in Block 4. The education particulars of the household members, aged 5 years to 29 years, who were currently attending educational institutions at primary level and above were recorded in Block 5. In this block, information on course, level, class/grade/year, type of institution, medium of instruction, etc., were collected for at most two courses. Block 6 was designed to collect particulars of private expenditure for the household members, whose educational particulars were collected in block 5. Here, the break-up of expenditure in detail of the basic course of each such member was collected along with the aggregate expenditure of the second course and all other courses (taken together), if any. Particulars of household members, aged 5 years to 29 years, who were currently not attending any educational institution, were collected in Block 7. In this block, information like whether ever enrolled, age at entry in school, age of discontinuation / dropping, etc. were recorded.
In a nutshell, the schedule consists of the following blocks:
Block 0: Descriptive identification of sample household
Block 1 : Identification of sample household
Block 2: Particulars of field operations.
Block 3 : Household characteristics
Block 4 : Demographic and other particulars of household members
Block 5: Education particulars of those aged 5-29 years who are currently attending at primary level and above
Block 6: Particulars of the private expenditure for those aged 5-29 years, who are currently attending at primary level and above
Block 7 : Particulars of currently not attending persons in the age group 5-29 years
Block 8: Remarks by investigator/senior investigator
