Sampling
Sampling Procedure
The sampling design adopted in ASI has undergone considerable changes from time to time, taking into account the technical and other requirements. The earlier sampling design had been adopted from ASI 2007-08 to ASI 2011-12. From ASI 2012-13, a new sampling design has been adopted following the recommendation of Dr. S. L.Shetty Committee and approved by the SCIS subsequently. According to the new sampling design, all the factories in the updated frame are divided into two sectors, viz., Census and Sample.Census Sector: Census Sector consists of the following units:
a) All industrial units belonging to the six less industrially developed states/ UT's viz.Manipur, Meghalaya, Nagaland, Sikkim, Tripura and Andaman & Nicobar Islands.
b) For the rest of the twenty-six states/ UT's., (i) units having 100 or more employees, and (ii) all factories covered under Joint Returns.
c) After excluding the Census scheme units, as defined above, all units belonging to the strata (State x District x Sector x 4 digit NIC 2008) having less than or equal to 4 units are also considered under Census Scheme. It may be noted that in the formation of stratum, the sectors are considered as Bidi, Manufacturing and Electricity.
Sample Sector
All the remaining units in the frame are considered under Sample Scheme. For all the states, strata are formed for each State x District x Sector x 4 digit NIC2008 factories. The units are arranged in descending order of their number of employees. Samples are drawn as per Circular Systematic Sampling technique for this scheme. An even number of units with a minimum of 4 units are selected and distributed in four sub-samples. It may be noted that all the 4 sub-samples from a particular stratum may not have equal number of units. Out of these 4 sub-samples, two pre-assigned sub-samples are given to NSSO (FOD) and the other two-subsamples are given to State/UT for data collection.
The entire census units plus all the units belonging to the two sub-samples given to NSSO (FOD) are treated as the Central Sample.
The units belonging to the two sub-samples allocated to States/UTs are to be canvassed by the respective States/UTs. Hence, State/UT has to use the data (collected by NSSO (FOD) and processed by CSO (IS Wing)) along with the state sample data while deriving the district level estimates for their respective State/UT.
The entire census units plus all the units belonging to the two sub-samples given to NSSO (FOD) plus all the units belonging to the two sub-samples given to State/UT are required for pooling of Central and State Samples.
Deviations from Sample Design
The sampling design adopted in ASI has undergone considerable changes from time to time, taking into account the technical and other requirements. The present sampling design has been adopted from ASI 2007-08. All the factories in the updated frame are divided into two sectors, viz., Census and Sample.
Weighting
WGT (Multiplier Factor) is the weighing variable from Block A : Identification Block. For Census data WGT has been given weight as 1.
