Dear User,
DHS does not have Stata code for the wealth index. You may be able to find equivalent code from Population Services International (see http://www.psi.org/wp-content/uploads/2014/10/Wealth-Quintil e-Guide.pdf). However, DHS has not confirmed that the PSI code is actually equivalent.

To further clarify: DHS computes the wealth index using CSPro, and SPSS, not Stata
Thank you for your post.
