Code:
#!/bin/bash
 
>extra.txt
>mismatch.txt
while read sLine; do
    OFS="$IFS"
    IFS="Ç"
    sTab= ${sLine} ;
    tLine="${egrep "^"${sTab[0]} file2.txt}"
    if [ -z "$tLine" ]; then echo "$sLine" >>extra.txt; IFS="$OFS"; continue; fi
    tTab= ${tLine} ;
    for (( i = 1 ; i < ${#sTab[@]} ; i++ )); do
        [ "${sTab[$i]}" = "${tTab[$i]}" ] || echo "${sTab[0]}|$i|${sTab[$i]}|${tTab[$i]}" >>mismatch.txt
    done
    IFS="$OFS"
done <file1.txt
echo "Number of Extra records in Source file : $(cat extra.txt|wc -l)"
cat extra.txt
echo "Number of mismatches : $(cat mismatch.txt|wc -l)"
cat mismatch.txt

I got an error saying :

line 14: 29123973: command not found
line 15: ${egrep "^"${sTab[0]} file2.txt}: bad substitution
Number of Extra records in Source file : 0
