Series Information
Last surveys of enterprises on trade, unorganised manufacturing and service sectors (excluding trade and construction) were conducted during 53rd round (January - December 1997) , 62nd round (July 2005 - June 2006) and 63rd round of NSS (July 2006 - June 2007) respectively. Other enterprise surveys carried out in between were 55th round (informal sector enterprises, 1999-2000), 56th round (unorganised manufacturing, 2000-2001) and 57th round (unorganised service sector excluding trade, finance and construction, 2001 -2002).
Abstract
The surveys of unincorporated non-agricultural enterprises conducted by NSSO are the primary source of data on various indicators of economic and operational characteristics of such enterprises in manufacturing, trade and other service sector (excluding construction) at national and state level. These are used for planning, policy formulation, decision support and as an input for funher statistical exercises. by various Government organizations, academicians, researchers and scholars. During 67'n round (July 2010 to June 20ll), NSSO carried out an all-India enterprise survey on economic and operational characteristics of unincorporated non-agricultural enterprises in manufacturing, trade and other service sector (excluding construction).
Objective of the survey: The main objective of the unincorporated non-agricultural enterprise surveys conducted by NSSO was to get estimates of various economic and operational characteristics of unincorporated non-agricultural enterprises in manufacturing, trade and other service sector (excluding construction) at national and State level. The survey was designed to estimate value of key characteristics per enterprise like average no. of workers, fixed assets, outstanding loans, total receipts, total operating expenses and gross value added separately for ‘Own Account Enterprises (OAEs)’ and ‘establishments’. Information on various operational characteristics like ownership, nature of operation, location, status of registration etc., were also collected to have an insight into economic scenario of the unincorporated non-agricultural enterprises in the country. These economic and operational indicators are required for planning, policy and decision making at various levels, both within the government and outside. These aspects of the unorganised enterprise sector are captured in detail in the present NSS survey and estimates are generated.
The enterprises covered in NSS 67th round were divided into three broad industry groups, viz. (i) manufacturing, (ii) trade and (iii) other service sector enterprises. Under the above sectoral coverage, enterprises were categorised into two types, the first type being Own Account Enterprises (OAE) i.e. those enterprises that do not employ hired workers on a fairly regular basis in the reference year and the second type being Establishments employing at least one hired
worker on a fairly regular basis in the reference year. The eligibility criteria for an enterprise to be covered in the survey was at least 30 days of operation (15 days of operation for seasonal enterprises / SHGs) in the reference year i.e. "last 365 days preceding the date of survey".

Study notes
The coverage of NSS 67th round (July 2010 – June 2011) was non-agricultural unincorporated enterprises belonging to three sectors viz., Manufacturing, Trade and Other Services. The survey considered the following broad categories of enterprises:
(a) Manufacturing enterprises excluding those registered under Sections 2m (i) and 2m (ii)
of the Factories Act, 1948.
(b) Manufacturing enterprises registered under Section 85 of Factories Act, 1948.
(c) Enterprises engaged in cotton ginning, cleaning and baling (code 01632 of NIC- 2008) excluding those registered under Factories Act.
(d) Enterprises manufacturing bidi and cigar excluding those registered under bidi and cigar workers (condition of employment) Act, 1966.
(e) Trading enterprises.
(f) Other Service sector enterprises excluding construction.
The Ownership categories of enterprises under coverage in (a) to (f) above was
(a) Proprietary and partnership enterprises.
(b) Trusts, Self-help groups (SHGs), Non-Profit Institutions (NPIs), etc.
And the following ownership categories of enterprises were excluded from the coverage of the
survey:
(a) Enterprises which are incorporated i.e. registered under Companies Act, 1956.
(b) Government and public sector enterprises.
(c) Cooperatives.
Structure of the schedule: NSS 67th round enterprise survey covered diverse domain of non-agricultural activities. The detailed enquiry schedule was structured accordingly. Schedule 2.34 consisted of 17 blocks (blocks 0 to 16). Blocks 0 and 1 were meant to record identification details of the enterprise; Blocks 14, 15 and 16 were for reporting particulars of field operation, remarks by the investigator and comments by the supervisory officers. In the remaining 13 blocks, data collected from the enterprises.
Some operational characteristics of the enterprises were collected in block 2. Block 2.1 used to record the different activities pursued by the enterprise.
Blocks 3, 4 and 5, 6 were the main blocks of the schedule where operating expenses and various receipts of the enterprises were recorded. Blocks 3 and 5 recorded the principal expenses and receipts whereas blocks 4 and 6 recorded the other expenses and other receipts.
Schedule 2.34 was designed in such a way that the different types of receipts and expenses for different types of enterprises were accommodated within the framework of blocks 3 to 6. To meet this objective and facilitate reporting of activity-specific items of principal operating expenses and principal receipts, two blocks namely, blocks 3 and 5 were subdivided into 11 sub-blocks. While these sub-blocks were meant for specific types of enterprise, blocks 4 and 6 were common for all enterprises. It may be noted that for an enterprise which ran a mixed activity, more than one of the sub-blocks of blocks 3 & 5 may had entries and this was in consonance with the activities recorded in block 2.1.
Block 7 was kept for calculation of gross value added.
The employment particulars of the enterprises were recorded in block 8.
Blocks 9, 10 and 11 were meant to collect information on emoluments, fixed assets and loan position of the enterprises respectively. The factor incomes of the enterprise were recorded in block 12. It may be noted that from this block also, value added could be generated. So, blocks 7 and 12 together provided an added check in the schedule for assessing the consistency of the data.
Block 13 was introduced to collect data on use of information and communication technology (ICT) by the enterprises.
(a) Manufacturing enterprises excluding those registered under Sections 2m (i) and 2m (ii)
of the Factories Act, 1948.
(b) Manufacturing enterprises registered under Section 85 of Factories Act, 1948.
(c) Enterprises engaged in cotton ginning, cleaning and baling (code 01632 of NIC- 2008) excluding those registered under Factories Act.
(d) Enterprises manufacturing bidi and cigar excluding those registered under bidi and cigar workers (condition of employment) Act, 1966.

(b) Trusts, Self-help groups (SHGs), Non-Profit Institutions (NPIs), etc.
And the following ownership categories of enterprises were excluded from the coverage of the
survey:
(a) Enterprises which are incorporated i.e. registered under Companies Act, 1956.
(b) Government and public sector enterprises.
(c) Cooperatives.

Sampling
Sampling Procedure
Outline of sample design: A stratified multi-stage design had been adopted for the 67th round survey. The first stage units (FSU) were the 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 enterprises in both the sectors. In case of large FSUs, one intermediate stage of sampling was done by the selection of three hamlet-groups (hgs)/ sub-blocks (sbs) from each large rural/ urban FSU.
Sampling frame: Census 2001 list of villages were used as the sampling frame for rural areas. Auxiliary information such as number of enterprises, number of workers, type of enterprises, activities of enterprises, etc. available from EC-2005 frame were used for stratification, sub-stratification and selection of enterprises. In Kerala, list of panchayat wards as per Census 2001 were used as frame since list of such wards is not available as per EC 2005
frame. In the urban sector, EC-2005 frame was used for 26 cities with population more than a million as per census 2001. Although Mumbai is a million plus city, EC-2005 frame was not used for Mumbai because of identification problem for IV unit/blocks in the EC for the city. For other cities/towns (including Mumbai), UFS frame (2002-07 phase or latest available phase prior to 2002-07 if it was not available) was used.
The sample design and estimation procedure used for the survey is attached as a document in external resources.

Deviations from the Sample Design
There was no deviation from the original sample deviation.
Response Rate
Out of the total number of 16000 FSUs (8380 villages and 7620 urban blocks) allotted for the central sample, 15898 FSUs (8296 villages and 7602 urban blocks) could be surveyed at the all-India level for canvassing Schedule 2.34. The total number of enterprises surveyed was 334474 (162375 in rural areas and 172099 in urban areas).
Weighting
For generating any estimate, one has to extract relevant portion of the data, and aggregate after applying the weights.
Weights (or multipliers) VARIABLES are given at the end of record of each dataset. The weights (multipliers) are
WGT_SS for Sub-sample-wise estimation and WGT_Combined for combined subsample estimates.
All records of an enterprise will have same weight figure. In case of those Blocks/Levels, where Item/Person Sl.No. is not applicable the field is filled up with 00000.

Characteristics of Data Collection Situation - Notes on data collection
The survey period of one year was divided into four sub-rounds of three months duration.
In each of these four sub-rounds equal number of sample first stage units (FSUs) i.e. villages/ blocks were allotted for survey with a view to ensuring uniform spread of sample FSUs over the entire survey period. Every attempt was made to survey each of the FSUs during the sub-round to which it was allotted. Because of the arduous field conditions, this restriction was not strictly enforced in Andaman and Nicobar Islands, Lakshadweep and rural areas of Arunachal Pradesh and Nagaland.
