MoSPI Revamps NSS Survey Design for District-Level Data
What Happened
The Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation (MoSPI) revamped the National Sample Survey (NSS) methodology starting January 2025. The new design uses the district as the primary unit for data collection and introduces monthly all-India estimates for the Periodic Labour Force Survey (PLFS).
Why It Matters
This shift enables more granular, district-level evidence-based policymaking and provides high-frequency data for tracking employment trends in India.
