Interviewer instructions

Information in respect of the ownership of the dwelling unit will be recorded against this item in codes. If the dwelling unit is owned by the sample household or it has owner-like possession of the dwelling, code 1 will be recorded. If the accommodation is provided by the employer of a member of the sample household, it will be treated as quarters and code 2 will be given. If the dwelling is taken on rent payable at monthly, quarterly or any other periodic intervals or on lease, it will be treated as a hired dwelling and code 3 will be recorded. Households living more or less regularly, under bridges, in pipe, under staircase, in purely temporary flimsy improvisations built by the roadside (which are liable to be removed any moment) etc. are considered to have no dwellings and for such households code 4 will be recorded against this item. Code 9 will be entered in all other types of possession.
In case of code 4 in item 1, items 2 to 23 of this block will be left blank.
