ABSTRACT
In this work, we have suggested some linear combinations of generalized ratio type estimators in estimation of current population mean when non response occur in two occasion successive sampling. Information on multi-auxiliary variables has been used and sub-sampling of non respondents technique is utilized to cope with the negative effect of non response. Properties of the suggested estimation procedures have been examined and suitable optimum replacement strategies are discussed. Empirical studies are carried out to justify the proposition of estimators. Suitable recommendations have been made.
