Assuming you have missed a field in Input_file2 too, so here I have added field GENDER field into Input_file2 in very first line as follows.
Could you please try following and let me know if this helps you.
Output will be as follows. EDIT: Wanted to add point here if any field is NOT present from Input_file1 which is present in Input_file2 it is going to leave that line.
Also adding an explanation here so that it will be good for you in case you get some same kind of requirement in future, hope this helps.
Thanks,
R. Singh
