Following is a response from Senior DHS staff member, Tom Pullum:
I haven't checked your numbers, but taking them as you gave them, the ratio of CR to IR cases (with the DV module) for NFHS-4 is 63696/79729 = .729. The corresponding ratio for NFHS-5 is 57693/72320 = .728. These ratios are almost exactly the same. In both surveys, apparently, about 17% of women who responded to the DV module did not get into the CR file. I can think of at least two reasons why a woman who responded to the DV module would not be in the CR file. The first is that the partner who is described in the DV module may be a former partner, not a current partner/spouse. You will see a distinction between a current and a former partner is made in the DV module. If you enter "tab v501 d104", for example, you will see that the DV module may be administered to women who are not currently in a union. Second, for a couple to be included in the CR file, the man and woman must list each other as the current partner. There may be cases in which a mutual match did not happen. You can easily identify which women did not get into the CR file by merging v001 v002 v003 in the CR file with v001 v002 v003 in the IR file, restricted to cases in which d104 (for example) is not NA.
