Using the Indian DHS 2015-16 data for my analysis, I have merged three files the person file (IAPR73DT), women file(IAIR73DT) and men file(IAMR73DT) and my unit of analysis is individual (women and men of age 15-49).

My question is what weight should I apply for my analysis (hv005 or v005 or mv005).
