Bk_1_11_12 | Block 1: Identification of Sample Enterprise. Block 1 has 21 items. Most of the items of this block are coded. The codes are described either beside the items or at the bottom of the block. Items 6 to 16 of this block are not applicable for the enterprises surveyed through the list frame. Block 11: Particulars of field operation Items in this block are self-explanatory. While filling up the schedules, care is to be taken to record the time taken in canvassing the schedule in minutes (and not in hours) against item 1102 of this block. Dates of survey/ inspection, etc. should be made as DD/MM/YY since these will be required in data processing. Block 12: Remarks by investigator and comments by supervisor(s) Block 12 (and 13) are meant for noting down the field-worker's remarks/ supervisor's comments/ suggestions regarding the entries made in Schedule 2.345. Their observations will be very important for understanding various entries in the schedule, particularly the abnormally high or low figures (e.g., value added) and also helps in understanding the field situation and accordingly improve the system of data collection and processing in future. Separate boxes have been provided in block 12 first to ascertain whether gross value added figure arrived at after canvassing the schedule is negative or not. If it is negative, appropriate code against item 1202 has to be given corresponding to reason of negative entry. Codes for this item are: - output during reference period much less than operating expenses-1, - new unit with insufficient output-2, - loss of output due to fire, theft, etc-3, - high previous year expenses accounted in present year(for books of accounts only)-4, - others (specify in detail giving the actual reason)-9 Wherever data is recorded from books of accounts, the respondent enterprise /company may be requested to provide a copy of the same. If they oblige, the books of accounts may invariably be attached with the schedule. This helps to scrutinise the schedules, particularly during data processing and subsequent stages of tabulation. If data is recorded from books of account then entry in item 1203 will be '1' .Otherwise entry will be '2'.If entry in item 1203 is '1' and balance sheet is attached with the schedule then item 1204 will contain '1'.

Care may be taken so that the sum of distributive expenses recorded in item 453 is consistent with those incorporated in column 3 of block 4. If values of receipts are collected at ex-factory price, distributive expenses should not be recorded. The value-added figure is obtained against item 459 with proper sign and in whole number of rupees. In case of negative entry, further queries may be made and appropriate codes may be provided in block 12. Block 5: other receipts/expenditures during the reference period: all non-financial enterprises Item 501-544 would correspond to other expenditure/receipts and appropriations where 'other expenditure/ receipts` are expenses and receipts not related to entrepreneurial activities. None of the items described through items 301 to 365 of blocks 3 and 3.1 will find a place in any of the items 501 to 514 of this block. Similarly, none of the items described through items 401 to 448 will find a place among items 531 to 544 of this block. The reverse is also true, i.e., during enquiry on receipts and operating expenses of an enterprise, expenses described through items 501 to 514 will not be recorded in any of the items 301 to 365 and receipts described through items 531 to 544 will not find place in any of the items 401 to 448. It may be noted that different enterprises maintain their books of accounts in different fashion and uniform practice is not followed throughout the country. However, the item descriptions have been made so that it fits descriptions written in different types of books of accounts to the extent possible. All of the items 511 to 514 of block 5 cannot strictly be called 'expenditure'. Items 511 to 514 appear in many profit and loss accounts as items under appropriation of gross profit before depreciation and taxation. Blocks 3 to 5:- Data on receipts and expenditure of all non-financial enterprises will be collected using these blocks. Items 301 to 395 of blocks 3 and 3.1 and item 502 of block 5 are for collecting data on various items of intermediate consumption of an enterprise. Items 401 to 487 of blocks 4 and 4.1 will record the receipts due to entrepreneurial activities. Block 5 will be used to record other items of expenses and receipts of these enterprises. Care may be taken so that there is no omission or duplication of entries on expenses between blocks 3, 3.1 and items 501 to 514 of block 5. Similarly, omission or duplication of recording receipts may be avoided between blocks 4, 4.1 and items 531 to 544 of block 5. If the value of the receipts in block 4 is collected at ex-factory price, then distributive expenses will not be recorded in item 453. Gross value added using product approach will be computed using block 4.2. In normal situations, gross value added is found as positive. However, if the gross value added arrived at is negative, remarks as per specified codes, and additional remarks, whenever necessary, must be provided in blocks 12 and 13. Block 6: Gross Value Added during the reference period: all financial enterprises (NIC 2004 codes 659 and money lending from own source (65925), Self-Help Group (65994), co-operative credit societies (65995)) Block 6 will not be filled-in for non-financial enterprises (and Blocks 3 to 5 will not be filled-in for financial enterprises). It may be noted that method of computing gross value added for the enterprises engaged in financial intermediation is different from that of the non-financial enterprises. Hence, the items of receipts and expenses used for computing gross value added for the financial enterprise should not be equated with those of the nonfinancial enterprises. For all the financial enterprises only this block will be used to compute the gross value added. Reference period, thus for this block will be reference year if data is recorded from books of accounts, but will be reference month when data is collected orally. It may be noted that monetary intermediation (NIC 2004 code 651) is outside the coverage of the survey. This activity mostly means banks. For operational convenience, a bank may be defined as a financial enterprise, which can issue chequebooks, demand drafts, banker's cheques, etc. to its depositors. Presently many of the banks are also engaged in activities other than banking, like security trading, home loans, insurance, etc. If such an enterprise is selected for survey, it may first be ascertained whether the major income of the enterprise during the reference period was from banking or other activities. Depending upon major income, if the activity of the enterprise is found to under NIC 3-digit code 651, it will be considered as a 'casualty' in case of list-frame or will be substituted in case of area-frame. If there is no additional enterprise available in the area frame for substitution, this will be treated as casualty. Separate codes have been provided for three financial activities, viz. money lending from own source (65925), Self-Help Groups (65994) and co-operative credit societies (65995). This will help to identify them at later stage. It may be noted that pawn shops (i.e., enterprises those keep some object on mortgage before giving loans) are under NIC 2004 code 65929. Some moneylenders may also keep goods from households on mortgage before giving loans to households. As long as money lending activity is done using own money, irrespective of whether the enterprise lending money keeps some articles on mortgage or not, it will be given NIC code 65925 (and not 65929). However, all registered pawnshops will be given NIC code 65929. | 1690824 | 28 |
bk_7_8 | Blocks 7 and 8: The employment and emolument related particulars of the enterprise would be recorded here. Block 7: Employment particulars of the enterprise during the reference period Item 701 has to be filed up only for list-frame companies.

Block 7.1: Branch-wise details on workers and income of companies appearing in the list-frame: This block has to be filled up only for list frame enterprises depending on entry in item 701. If the company has branch i.e. entry in item 701 is '1', this block has to be filled-up. Here, 'branch' means each of the location of the company, be it head office/registered office/sales outlet/service centre, etc. For each branch, information regarding address, total number of employees, income has to be entered in separate rows of this block. If all the rows are exhausted, a new sheet (photocopy of 15th page of schedule 2.345) has to be attached for filling up entire information. The description of the columns of the block is as follows- Col 1: Serial number of the branch Col 2: Name and address of the branch Col3: State code has to be entered according to the location of the enterprise. State codes are given below block 6.1. In case the branch is located outside India code '40' has to be given. Col 4: This column will give whether the branch is in rural area (code 1) or urban area (code 2). Col 5: This column would have the number of worker corresponding to the branch/head office of the enterprise. Col 6: Total receipt or total income of the branch, whichever available, will be recorded here. If total receipt is recorded, the word 'income' at the heading should be struck offban areas (code 2). It is clear that data for the same variable, whichever available for all the branches will have to be recorded here. Total of the entries in column 5 of block 7.1 should be equal to entry in item 719. Blocks 7 to 10 will be canvassed to all the surveyed enterprises, financial or non-financial. Block 7.1 is applicable only for list frame companies. Moreover, for the list frame companies, data in blocks 3 to 5 and 7 to 10 (for nonfinancial companies) / 6 to 10 (for financial companies) will be for the entire company considering all its branches, head offices, registered offices, etc. | 712302 | 27 |
bk_9 | Block 9: Assets of the enterprise Reference period for recording data in different columns of items 901 to 919 are: column 3: Value of assets owned as on first day of the reference year - First date of reference year (to be recorded only for enterprises providing data from its books of accounts) column 4: Value of assets owned as on firs day of the reference year - Last date of reference year columns 5 and 6: Additions and deductions to owned fixed assets - Reference Year Column 7: rent payable on hired assets - Same as block 3/6 For items 921 to 923, reference period will be entire reference year. In some balance sheets, assets are also written as 'application of funds'. Hence, while recording from books of accounts, data in block 9 will be recorded from that part of balance sheet that shows the 'assets' or 'application of funds'. It may be noted that the assets are assets of the enterprise. Hence, if owner of a proprietary enterprise has made some investments (like NSC, PPF, etc.) in her/his personal capacity, these will not be considered here. Fixed assets: Fixed assets are assets held for the purpose of producing or providing goods or services and they are not held for resale in the normal course of entrepreneurial activities. These cover all old and new goods that have a normal economic life of more than one year from the date of purchase. Information regarding fixed assets is to be recorded by physical approach, i.e., all fixed assets available in the premises of the enterprise will be considered here. If books of accounts are available, values of assets (as on first and last date of the reference year) may be recorded as per the values available in the books. Otherwise, 'market value', i.e., value that the asset will fetch if sold at present (as on last date of the reference year) condition will be recorded. Fixed assets will include: - 1) assets used for production, transportation, living or other facilities (recreation etc.). Full value of assets taken on hire purchase/ instalment (whether fully paid or not) excluding interest should be considered. 2) assets under construction, i.e. construction of building etc., installation of plant and machinery, preparation of chassis of truck, etc. (transport equipment) may be reported under the relevant items. 3) additions to fixed assets (as distinct from minor repair work) during the reference year are to be included.

bk_10 | Block 10: Financial liabilities Amounts payable by the enterprise are its liabilities. Liabilities include capital deployed by the partners of an enterprise, share capital, reserve and surplus amount noted in the balance sheet, long term loans as well as all the short term commitments for payments like unpaid wages, etc. The reference period for amount of loan outstanding will be the last date of the reference year, while for interest/dividend payable, reference period will be the same as one used in blocks 3/6 as the case may be. All entries in this block will be made in whole number of rupees. In balance sheet of enterprises, the term 'liabilities' and 'sources of funds' are used interchangeably. Hence, while recording data from the balance sheet, entries in block 10 will be recorded only from 'liabilities' or 'sources of funds' side of the balance sheet. The following points may be noted for inclusion/exclusion of an item in this block through oral enquiry: Included are: - loans taken for the purpose of utilising the same in the entrepreneurial activities of an enterprise will be included even if such loans are used for other purposes. - Loans contracted by the enterprise either by cash or kind or both from other agencies. - In case of hire purchase also, loan outstanding on the date of survey, including interest will be considered in block 9 against the corresponding serial number. Excluded are: - loans taken for other purposes but ultimately used in the enterprise, Items 1001 to 1003 are to note the share capital of the enterprises. These items are not applicable for proprietary enterprises. Item 1001 is applicable only for the partnership enterprises. Items 1002 and 1003 are applicable for the co-operative societies, SHG's and companies. | 94771 | 28 |
bk_71 | Applicable for all list frame companies with branches Some instructions to interviewers related to the LIST FRAME COMPANIES: 1. In the list frame, name and address of a little more than 1000 companies will be provided. These companies (or any of its branches) will not be covered in the area frame survey. 2. Since the major source of address of list frame company is from Ministry of Company Affairs, it is possible that the company's registered office is available in the frame-address, while the head office/ corporate office (where books of accounts and data on workers, etc. is actually available) is at another place. In such case, data for the list frame company will be collected from the head office/ corporate office. 3. The data for list frame companies will be for the entire company covering all its branches together. Branchwise data on workers and income will be recorded in block 7.1 for list frame companies only. Data on column 4 of block 7.1 is to be recorded completely. For all the list frame companies, try to record data from the books of accounts and attach a copy of the same with the schedule. | 3521 | 30 |
