Description

Definition
3.0.2 Mixed activity: There are enterprises, which carry out a number of activities simultaneously. For example, a grocery shop owner may also carry out photocopying activity from his shop, a doctor may have a medical shop attached to his dispensary, a restaurant may run an STD booth in its premises, etc. Each of such activities is to be treated as a separate enterprise if information for them is separately available. If the accounts are not separable then the data will pertain to the enterprise as a whole and the enterprise will be classified as having mixed activities and the activities of such enterprises are a mixture of NIC's. The appropriate NIC in such cases will be determined on the basis of major activity. Major activity refers to the activity, which yields maximum income / turnover / employment. The above criteria may be applied in the given order, i.e. income first, then turnover and then employment, to determine the major activity. The activities may be mixed at any level of NIC, but for the present survey it will be restricted to 2-digit level of NIC-98.
