Abstract

National Sample Survey Organisation (NSSO) is one of the vital official data sources for Indian economy. It carries out large-scale national-level surveys on various issues for capturing several important variables at the micro level from time to time. In addition, NSSO introduces different new surveys relevant to the contemporary times. More importantly, these data incorporate the information on 'multiplier', using which one can estimate the parameters for the entire nation based on the statistic. Considering the importance of NSSO data for empirical research, the present paper tries to identify the limitations associated with its surveys and discusses the possible ways to overcome the limitations in order to make the data more useful.
