Following is another response from Senior DHS Stata Specialist, Tom Pullum:

For all of the India surveys (and ONLY the India surveys), the household ID and case ID include state (generically "region"), given by hv024 in the PR file and v024 in the IR file. Just add that into the merge, along with v001, v002, v003 (in any order) and you should be ok. Let us know if you still have a problem.
