Following is a response from DHS Technical Deputy Director, Fred Arnold:

As with other DHS surveys, the NFHS-4 did NOT have a limit on the number of couples per household. However, perhaps you are using domestic violence questions from the DV section of the questionnaire. Only one eligible woman is randomly selected per household for the DV questions. Therefore, if you are using the DV data and matching the female respondent to her husband, there would not be more than one couple per household.
