Following is a response from DHS staff member Tom Pullum:

When I run your code I also get 29.56%, which rounds to 28.6%, like you. However, the value in table 16.1 (bottom row, first number) of the NFHS-4 report is not 26.8%. It is 29.5%. Could you have been looking at the wrong table or the wrong report?

If I omit the line "replace dv_phy = 1 if d130a>=1 & d130a<=4", I get 29.49%, which rounds to 29.5% and matches the table.
