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 NSS includes a consumer expenditure survey (CES), giving rise to an annual series of consumption data. The National Sample Survey (NSS) started its fifty-ninth round from 1st January 2003. Fifty-ninth round of NSS is earmarked for collection of data on land and livestock holdings, debt and investment and situation assessment for Indian farmers, besides that on household consumer expenditure and employment-unemployment. The field operations of the survey commenced on 1st January 2003 and continued up to 31st December 2003. In order to reduce the recall error, the total information relating to each sample household was collected in two visits.  The first visit (January to August) broadly covered the Kharif season of the agricultural year 2002 - 2003 and the second (September to December) the corresponding Rabi season. 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 and \"last 365 days\" for some less frequently purchased items. To minimise recall errors, a very detailed item classification was, as usual, adopted to collect information. The schedule also collected some other household particulars including age, sex and educational level of each household member.\n\nThe field work for the survey was conducted, as usual, by the Field Operations Division of the Organisation.

The first stage unit (FSU) is the census village in the rural sector and UFS block in the urban sector. The ultimate stage units (USUs) are households in both the sectors. Hamlet-groups \/ sub-blocks constitute the intermediate stage whenever these are formed in the selected FSU.\n\nSampling Frame for First Stage Units: \nFor rural areas, the list of villages (panchayat wards for Kerala) as per Population Census 1991 and for urban areas the latest UFS frame have been used as sampling frame. For stratification of towns by size class, provisional population of towns as per Census 2001 have been used.\n\nStratification: \n\nRural Sector: Two special strata have been formed at the State\/ UT level, viz.,\n Stratum 1: all FSUs with population between 0 to 50 and\nStratum 2:  FSUs with population more than 15,000.\n\nSpecial stratum 1 was formed whenever at least 50 such FSUs were found in a State\/UT. Similarly, special stratum 2 was formed if at least 4 such FSUs were found in a State\/UT.
