Questions and instructions

Literal question

How much monthly rent is being paid by the household?

Interviewer instructions

Item 9 will be filled in for households of both rural and urban areas whereas item 10 will be filled in for the households of urban areas only. Actual monthly rent of the dwelling unit will be noted if it is taken on rent. But if a household in urban areas is not residing in a rented house, that is, is residing in a house which it either owns or otherwise occupied without paying any rent, then an imputed rent will be recorded. Imputation will be done on the basis of prevailing rate of rent for similar houses in the locality or surrounding areas. Rent does not include any salami/Pugree or any kind of cuss payable to local bodies or Government or monthly maintenance charges payable to co-operative society etc. It is merely an amount payable to the owner or some other partly as per contract between the occupier and the person who lets it out. A household may occupy a dwelling unit which is neither owned, nor hired in. In such cases also the imputed rent will be recorded.
