The correct answer is

Five years

This question is about the periodicity of major surveys conducted by the National Sample Survey Organisation (NSSO), now part of the National Statistical Office (NSO) under the Ministry of Statistics and Programme Implementation.
Historically, the NSSO's large-scale survey on Employment and Unemployment (which also generates related education data, since educational attainment is a key variable collected alongside employment status) was conducted as a quinquennial survey — that is, once every five years. Major rounds were carried out in years such as 1983, 1987-88, 1993-94, 1999-2000, 2004-05, and 2011-12.
This five-yearly periodicity distinguishes it from smaller 'thin' annual sample surveys the NSSO also ran, and from the later Periodic Labour Force Survey (PLFS), which moved to an annual cycle. But for the classic large-scale NSSO survey on employment and education, the recognised periodicity remains once every five years.
Therefore, the correct answer is Five years.
