Unfortunately, the NFHS-4 guidance does not directly correspond with NFHS-5; NFHS-5 was collected using 707 districts, as compared to the 640 in NFHS-4, thus including more districts than were used in the 2011 India Census. The multilevel weight calculations require the total number of census clusters in a given strata, the average number of households per cluster by sampling strata, and the total number of households according to the census frame. The NFHS-5 (India 2019-21) final report on the DHS website right now doesn't seem to contain appendices, so I can't tell if any of this information is provided therein.
Do you have any recommendations for how to get this information and calculate these weights for NFHS-5?
