  There have been recent reports of unexpectedly large velocity dipole in the
NRAO VLA Sky Survey data. We investigate whether the excess in the NVSS dipole
reported can be of cosmological origin. We assume a long wavelength
inhomogeneous scalar perturbation of the form \alpha sin (\kappa z) and study
its effects on the matter density contrasts. Assuming an ideal fluid model we
calculate, in the linear regime, the contribution of the inhomogeneous mode to
the density contrast. We calculate the expected dipole in the LSS for two
cases, first assuming that the mode is still superhorizon everywhere, and
second assuming the mode is subhorizon, but has crossed the horizon deep in
matter domination and is subhorizon everywhere in the region of the survey
(NVSS). In both cases we find that such an inhomogeneous scalar perturbation is
sufficient to generate the reported values of dipole anisotropy in LSS. For the
superhorizon modes we find values which are consistent with both CMB and NVSS
results. We also predict signatures for the model which can be tested by future
observations.
