The dataset contains year-, region- and fractile-class-wise data on distribution (per thousand) of households with different percentage level of calorie intake everyday to the standard consumer unit of 2700 kilocalories per day. The dataset presents the data by division of households by the level of their income (mpce fractile-class) and by percentage of calorie intake, such as 70 percent, 80 percent, etc., to the actual standard requirement of 2700 kilocalories every day. Note: For the years 2023 and 2024, the NSS published separate data with adjusted and unadjusted values for intake of calories and other things.
