Request for an Information regarding NSS

[Anushka Mullick]

Hi All,

I am Anushka Mullick, currently a Third Year PhD student at Binghamton University at the Department of Economics! 

Does anyone know if NSS(National Sample Survey) interviews the same households over each rounds ? Like are households or individuals belonging to NSS 43rd round are also surveyed in NSS 50th round  ? 

To my knowledge I can’t find it on data documentation, and also I can’t  merge across the survey rounds on Person Key or Household Id! 

I ll highly appreciate your help! 

Thanking You,

Anushka Mullick

Hello,

I think it is safer to assume that these HHs are not the same systematically - there might be some overlap but it is not a panel but a repeated cross-section. 

The only dataset that I know has the same HHs over time is IHDS. Hope that helps.

Sincerely,

Nikhil

As Nikhil said, the NSS is not a household-level panel.

On top of the IHDS that Nikhil mentioned, the ARIS-REDS and CMIE Consumer Pyramids are household panels, although the latter is not free and not always available institutionally.

Dear Mullick , 

NSS is not a panel data and neither household nor PSU are same. Based on the purpose of study people create  pseudo panel. 

But if I am not wrong PLFS have some panel content.

Best,
