Study Type

Socio-Economic/Monitoring Survey

Series Information

The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) conducted, for the first time during November 1951 to August 1952, the “All India Rural Credit Survey” in 75 selected districts spread all over the country. The main objective of this survey was to study two aspects, viz.,(i) the demand for credit from rural families and (ii) the supply of credit by credit agencies -both institutional and non-institutional. The data were collected mainly for formulating the banking policies. The design of the survey was not suitable for providing estimates of indebtedness at the state and national level. The second such survey on rural “Debt and Investment” was conducted by the RBI in the year 1961-62 for obtaining reliable estimates of debt, borrowing, capital formation etc. The third comprehensive enquiry in this series of decennial surveys was entrusted by the RBI to the National Sample Survey Organisation (NSSO) and was conducted along with the survey on “Land Holding” during the year 1971-72, as a part of the NSSO programme in its 26th round survey operation. The fourth such survey was conducted in the 37th round (January to December 1982) along with Land Holdings as per the ten years programme charted by the Governing Council. The fifth such survey “All India Debt and Investment Survey (AIDIS)” was conducted along with “Land and Livestock Holdings” in the 48th round (January to December, 1992).

In the 59th round (January to December, 2003) also, “All India Debt and Investment Survey (AIDIS)” will be carried out along with “Land and Livestock Holdings”. The objectives of the AIDIS remain the same as those of the earlier surveys, namely, to obtain quantitative information on the stock of assets, incidence of indebtedness, capital formation and other indicators or rural/urban economy which will be of value in developing the credit structure in particular, and also for obtaining other allied information required in the field of planning and development. Further, since the survey will be of the kind of a repeat survey of that of the NSS 48th round, it is considered necessary to plan the survey in such a way as to ensure, as far as practicable, comparability with the estimates of the various characteristics generated from the earlier rounds.

Abstract

The survey period of the 59th round was from January to December 2003. The required information has been collected from the same set of sample households in two visits. The information to be collected in the second visit to the household is considerably less than that to be collected in the first visit. In view of this uneven work-load in the two visits, it was decided to keep the survey period of the first visit as eight months - from January to August 2003 - and the survey period of the second visit as four months - from September to December 2003. As a result, the households which were visited in the first two months of the first visit will be revisited in the first month of the second visit and so on.

The position in regards to the assets and liabilities of the sample households is required to be collected with reference to a fixed data, namely, as on the 30th June 2002. There was a time lag between the reference date and the survey date in the first visit varying from household to household ranging from 6 months to a maximum period of 14 months. To derive the above, therefore, it was decided to collect information on assets and liabilities as on the date of survey and the transactions relating to the said assets and liabilities carried out during the period intervening the date of reference and the date of survey.

Broadly, the following information has been collected in this round of survey :-

(i) the asset and the liability position of the households

(ii) the amount of capital expenditure incurred by the household during the reference period of agricultural year 2002-2003 on

(a) residential plots, houses or buildings,

(b) farm business and

(c) non-farm business,

(iii) sale and loss of assets during July 2002 to June 2003.

The assets owned by the households have been classified into three categories, namely,

(a) physical assets contributing to capital formation

(b) financial assets and

(c) durable household assets.

Besides collection of information for deriving the asset and liability position of the households as on 30.6.2002, provisions have also been made to collect data on the transactions of physical, financial and household durable assets and also on the cash borrowings and repayments made during the agricultural year 2002-2003.
