  1. Service Sector Surveys conducted by NSSO in the past and the latest survey during 2016-17A presentation byS. K. MukhopadhyayDirector National Sample Survey Office (NSSO)Survey Design and Research Division (SDRD)

  2. Importance of Service Sector in India • Service Sector encompasses a diverse domain of economic activities, sizes and operational characteristics of units. • Out of 21 sections of ISIC, service sector has 13 sections • 27% of workforce (as per NSS survey on Employment and Unemployment conducted during 2011-12) • 44 million unincorporated non-agricultural enterprises and 75 million workers in these enterprises (73rd round: 2015-16)

  3. NSS surveys on Service Sector:Phases of evolution • NSS surveys on services sector can be split in three different phases: • Phase I: Prior to 1977: Household based non-agricultural activities • Phase II: 1977 to 2007: Follow-up surveys covering household and non-household enterprises of Economic Census • Phase III: After 2007 present phase: (i) Unincorporated enterprises, (ii) Survey of Services Sector • Economic Census (EC) is the complete count of all establishments (i.e. units engaged in production and/ or distribution of goods and services not for the purpose of sole consumption). • To provide: • an up to date ‘area frame’ containing information on number of establishments and number of workers by industry, by type of ownership of the establishments, etc. at the village/block level, • from which sample villages/blocks could be drawn as the primary sampling units for collecting detailed information about the establishments in the follow-up sample surveys..

  4. NSS surveys on Service Sector:Phases of evolution: Prior to 1977 • 1st round of NSSO (July, 1949 to June, 1950): Covered cottage industries, crafts and any trade, business. • Integrated surveys during 1964 to 1970: Covering (i) household enterprise, (ii) consumption and (iii) capital formation and saving. • Consider 29th round of NSS: 1974-75 • Coverage: Small Scale Manufacture and Repair Services (Non-registered), Transport, Trade, Hotels And Restaurants, Services and Construction, Mining And Quarrying

  5. NSS surveys on Service Sector:Phases of evolution: Prior to 1977 • Selection of First Stage Units: Probability proportional to size (a measure  of population) • Selection of Households: linear systematic sampling • Sample Size: 13384 FSU, 240,000 households (12 enterprise per FSU in rural areas and 28 to 30 enterprise per FSU in urban area) • Sample design: Stratified two-stage: first-stage units were 1971 census villages in rural areas and urban blocks in urban areas. The second stage units are  households for the socio-economic enquiries.

  6. NSS surveys on Service Sector:Phases of evolution: Prior to 1977 • Drawback of the surveys during phase I: • The household approach of identifying the units excluded the non-household based units:cooperative societies, trusts, SHGs, etc. • Information on areas with a concentration of enterprises was not available. This was felt necessary for ensuring an efficient sampling for the future surveys.

  7. NSS surveys on Service Sector:Phases of evolution (1977 to 2007) • A series of Economic Censuses were conducted by NSSO as follows: • In 1977, the first Economic Census • In 1980, second Economic Census • In 1990, third Economic Census • In 1998, fourth Economic Census • In 2005, fifth Economic Census • In 2013-14, sixth Economic Census

  8. Follow-up Surveys on Economic Census • Since the first Economic Census (EC) conducted in 1977, NSSO has been conducting follow-up surveys of ECs on periodic basis. • So far there are 14 follow up surveys on non-agricultural enterprises were conducted. • The first was the survey on ‘Unorganised Manufacture-Non Directory Establishments and Own Account Enterprises’ conducted during 33rd Round (1978-79) and the latest on Unincorporated Non-Agricultural Enterprises (excluding Construction) conducted during NSS 73rd Round (2015-16). • These Surveys covered different sectors of unorganised/ unincorporated non-agricultural enterprises such as Manufacturing, Trade and other Services.

  14. NSS surveys on Service Sector:Phases of evolution (1977 to 2007) • The 63rd round (2006-07): FEATURES • Two frames : List frame and Area frame. • A list of about 1000 service sector companies was used as list frame. Out of these 438 were surveyed. • Area frame covered 14000 FSUs surveying 189,844 units.

  15. Fine tuning made in design of the survey • Allocation of First Stage Units: Total FSUs to be surveyed were allocated to the rural and urban areas in proportion to the number of workers in service sector enterprises as per EC (for example in 63rd round according to EC '98) engaged in the activities under coverage of the survey. • Formation of sub-stratification using information on number of hired worker in different types of services sector enterprises • Selection of FSUs for better representation: FSUs were selected generally using PPS with size as workers.

  16. Fine tuning made in design of the survey • Widening the coverage by inclusion of different types of service sector enterprises. • Special effort to capture bigger service sector enterprises • Formation of special stratum one each for Rural and Urban sector at the State level consisting of all the FSUs of the State / UT having at least one big unit or having a large number of workers engaged in the same activity. • Introduction of List Frame to supplement the Area Frame: during 2006-07

  17. NSS surveys on Service Sector:Present phase (after 2007) • Two surveys during 2010-11 (67th round) and 2015-16 (73rd round) • Unincorporated non-agricultural enterprises in manufacturing, trade and other service sector (excluding construction) • Coverage is of the entire unincorporated part of the economy (except construction) • Proprietary and partnership enterprises, Trusts, Self-help groups (SHGs), Non-Profit Institutions (NPIs), etc. • Sample size: nearly 16000 First Stage Units • Sampling fraction: nearly 1.5%

  20. Some Features of the Survey of Unincorporated Enterprises in 2010-11 and 2015-16 • Formation of special segment: • All the non-agricultural enterprises having 20 or more workers and having operated for at least one day during last 365 days was listed to constitute a separate segment in the FSU. All the enterprises under the coverage in this segment were surveyed. • 19 Second Stage Stratum were formed in NSS 67th round with allocation of 44 units per FSU (surveyed 21 enterprises per FSU) • 16 second-stage strata were formed within each sample FSU in 73rd round 32 units per FSU.
