The education question on the household questionnaire is "What is the highest grade (NAME) completed. The education on the woman's and man's questionnaire is "What is the highest grade you completed?" In the education tables in the NFHS-5 final report, the standard education levels are, as follows:

No
schooling
<5 years
complete
5-7 years
complete
8-9 years
complete
10-11 years
complete
12 or more
years complete
Don't know/
missing

No specific question is asked on whether or not the respondent completed college. My understanding is that there is insufficient information on whether or not each respondent completed college.
