Following is a response from Senior DHS Specialist, Noureddine Abderrahim:

In the recode data files of both surveys India 1998-99 and India 2005-06 the household identification is the state code (5 characters), the PSU number (3 characters) and then the household number (4 characters). All the information, state, psu, and household number are survey specific. Any household that is surveyed twice is done by coincidence and not on purpose. The two samples are independent.
