Dear Rakesh,
You may find IPUMS-DHS (www.idhsdata.org) particularly useful for your needs. The birth files and women's files have already been merged (and all of the household variables have also been added), and it is easy to browse all the variables to see which are available.
You can login with your DHS program email and password. Select GET DATA on the home page, use SELECT SAMPLES to choose India. (Be sure you SUBMIT on the sample selection page). The TOPICS drop-down menu will then show you the variables that are available for this sample.
Good luck with your research!
