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 62nd round survey is the seventeenth in the annual series of surveys of household consumer expenditure. It was conducted during July 2005 to June 2006. Household consumer expenditure is measured as the expenditure incurred by a household on domestic account during a specified period, called reference period. It includes the imputed values of goods and services, which are not purchased but procured otherwise for consumption. In other words, it is the sum total of monetary values of all the items (i.e. goods and services) consumed by the household on domestic account during the reference period. The imputed rent of owner-occupied houses is excluded from consumption expenditure. Any expenditure incurred towards the productive enterprises of the households is also excluded from household consumer expenditure.  \n\nThe word \"consumption\" is used in different senses. The main reason for this is that some items can be used only once while others can be used repeatedly. A household consumer expenditure survey, therefore, needs to assign different meanings to consumption for different items. The NSS traditionally uses three different definitions or approaches to consumption of different items: Consumption approach, Expenditure approach and  First-use approach. Items of consumption have been classified into four groups. The Consumption approach is used for Group I, the First-use approach for Group II and the Expenditure approach for Groups III and IV. The four groups of items are:\n\nGroup I: Items of food other than 'cooked meals*', pan, tobacco and intoxicants and fuel and light: Consumption is the actual consumption during the reference period. Both quantity and value of such consumption are collected.\n\nGroup II: Items of clothing and footwear: An item is consumed if it is brought into first use during the reference period. The item may or may not be procured within the reference period. It can be procured through purchase or home production, or as gift or charity. Both quantity and value are collected.\n\nGroup III: Durable goods: Any expenditure incurred on an item for purchase or towards cost of raw materials and services for its construction and repair during the reference period is treated as consumption of the item. \n\nGroup IV: Cooked meals; Miscellaneous goods and services including education, medical, rent, taxes and cesses: Any expenditure incurred on the item during the reference period is treated as consumption of the item. Consumption is recorded in value terms only.\n\nThe 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 collected data were processed by the Data Processing Division of NSSO and tabulated by the Computer Centre of Department of Statistics. The reports have been prepared by Survey Design & Research Division (SDRD) of NSSO under the guidance of the Governing Council, NSSO."},"version_statement":{"version":"V1.0;  Re-organised anonymised dataset for  public distribution.","version_date":"2012-04-02"},"study_info":{"abstract":"The National Sample Survey Office (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 first stage units (FSU) were the 2001 census (for Manipur, 1991 census) villages (Panchayat wards in case of Kerala) in the rural sector and Urban Frame Survey (UFS) blocks in the urban sector. The ultimate stage units (USU) were households in both the sectors. \n\nIn the case of large villages\/ blocks requiring hamlet-group (hg)\/ sub-block (sb) formation, one intermediate stage was the selection of two hgs\/ sbs from each FSU.\n\nSampling frame: \nThe list of villages as per census 2001 (for Manipur, 1991 census was used since 2001 census list was not available) was used as frame for the rural sector and the latest available list of UFS blocks was used as frame in the urban sector. However, EC-98 was used as frame for the 27 towns with population 10 lakhs or more (as per Census 2001).\n\nStratification: \nWithin each district of a State\/ UT, two basic strata were formed:\n(i) rural stratum comprising of all rural areas of the district and \n(ii) urban stratum comprising of all the urban areas of the district. However, if there were one or more towns with population 10 lakhs or more as per population census 2001 in a district, each of them also formed a separate basic stratum and the remaining urban areas of the district was considered as another basic stratum. There are 27 towns with population 10 lakhs or more at all-India level as per census 2001.\n\nFormation of second-stage strata and allocation of households: \nAll the households listed in the selected village\/ block\/ segments were stratified into two second-stage strata (SSS) on the basis of land possessed by households in rural areas and household MPCE in urban areas, as follows.\n1. For the rural sector, a cut-off point 'X' (in hectares) was determined at State\/ UT level from NSS 48th round data in such a way that the top 20% of rural households in the State\/UT, according to the estimates from that round, possessed land equal to or more than X. All the listed households possessing land less than X were placed in SSS 1 and the rest in SSS 2.\n2. Similarly, in the urban sector, a cut-off point 'A' (in Rs.) was determined at State\/ UT level from NSS 55th round data for each NSS region in such a way that the top 20% of the households, according to the estimates from that round, had MPCE equal to or more than 'A'. All the listed households with MPCE less than 'A' were placed in SSS 1 and the rest in SSS 2.\n\nFrom each SSS, the sample households were selected by SRSWOR.","sampling_deviation":"There was no deviation from the original sampling design.","coll_mode":["Face-to-face [f2f]"],"research_instrument":"Summary description of the schedule 1.0 on consumer expenditure for NSS 62nd  round consisted of 12 blocks is given below. \n \nBlocks 0, 1 and 2 - were similar to the ones used in usual NSS rounds.
