Hi

I'm using the household member recode of the 2015-16 India Survey.
I noticed that when I apply the household sample weight (hv005), it changes the total n.
Please find attached an example, copied from Stata. You will notice that the total frequency changes.

Is this normal ?

Thank you in advance.
