NFHS collects information about the deaths of any usual member of the households who died in the past three years prior to the date of the interview i.e. January 2013 until December 2016 for the NFHS (2015-16) [27] and January 2016 to April 2021 for NFHS (2019-21) [28]. The NFHS provides the population by age, sex and residence as well as 74,945 and 81,340 deaths during 2015-16 and 2019-21 respectively. NFHS sample weights are used to compute deaths and populations by age groups.

In this study, we examined the changes in mortality patterns in India and its 36 states by sex, residence, and time using two recent National Family Health Survey data: NFHS (2015–16) and NFHS (2019–21). We have also used SRS data for 2015 and 2020 for India and 22 states to compare the estimates of \({e}_{0}\) and \(({e}_{0}^{\dagger})\) from NFHS. This study used the data on 601,599 and 636,699 households available in NFHS (2015–16) and NFHS (2019–21), respectively [45, 46].
