HI.

Using your sample data, here is a solution using a GNU utility, dwdiff. Basically, it operates on space-separated words, so I modified your sample files to be that instead of | separated:
Code:
#!/usr/bin/env bash

# @(#) s1       Demonstrate field/word diff, dwdiff.

# Utility functions: print-as-echo, print-line-with-visual-space, debug.
# export PATH="/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin"
LC_ALL=C ; LANG=C ; export LC_ALL LANG
pe() { for _i;do printf "%s" "$_i";done; printf "\n"; }
pl() { pe;pe "-----" ;pe "$*"; }
em() { pe "$*" >&2 ; }
db() { ( printf " db, ";for _i;do printf "%s" "$_i";done;printf "\n" ) >&2 ; }
db() { : ; }
C=$HOME/bin/context && [ -f $C ] && $C dwdiff

FILE=${1-data1}

pl " Input data files:"
head data?

pl " Amended data files::"
sed 's/|/ /g' data1 > t1
sed 's/|/ /g' data2 > t2
head t?

pl " Results:"
dwdiff t1 t2

pl " More details for dwdiff:"
dixf dwdiff

exit 0

producing:
Code:
$ ./s1

Environment: LC_ALL = C, LANG = C
(Versions displayed with local utility "version")
OS, ker|rel, machine: Linux, 3.16.0-4-amd64, x86_64
Distribution        : Debian 8.7 (jessie) 
bash GNU bash 4.3.30
dwdiff 2.0.9

 Input data files:

==> t2 <==
1 piyush bangalore QA 
1 piyush bangalore QA 
2 pankaj bangalore dev 
3 rohit bangalore dev

 Results:
1 piyush bangalore [-dev-] {+QA+} 
1 piyush bangalore QA 
2 pankaj bangalore dev 
3 rohit [-delhi QA-] {+bangalore dev+}

 More details for dwdiff:
dwdiff  a delimited word diff program (man)
Path    : /usr/bin/dwdiff
Version : 2.0.9
Type    : ELF 64-bit LSB executable, x86-64, version 1 (SYSV ...)
Help    : probably available with --help
Repo    : Debian 8.7 (jessie)

Note that the braces enclose the markers + for an addition, - for a deletion.

There are a number of additional options. See man dwdiff for details.

Best wishes ... cheers, drl

LEARN ABOUT SUNOS

setusershell

getusershell(3C)					   Standard C Library Functions 					  getusershell(3C)

NAME

       getusershell, setusershell, endusershell - get legal user shells

SYNOPSIS

       #include <unistd.h>

       char *getusershell(void);

       void setusershell(void);

       void endusershell(void);

DESCRIPTION

       The  getusershell()  function  returns  a  pointer  to  a  legal  user  shell  as defined by the system manager in the file /etc/shells. If
       /etc/shells does not exist, the following locations of the standard system shells are used in its place:

       /bin/bash		  /bin/csh
       /bin/jsh 		  /bin/ksh
       /bin/pfcsh		  /bin/pfksh
       /bin/pfsh		  /bin/sh
       /bin/tcsh		  /bin/zsh
       /sbin/jsh		  /sbin/pfsh
       /sbin/sh 		  /usr/bin/bash
       /usr/bin/csh		  /usr/bin/jsh
       /usr/bin/ksh		  /usr/bin/pfcsh
       /usr/bin/pfksh		  /usr/bin/pfsh
       /usr/bin/sh		  /usr/bin/tcsh
       /usr/bin/zsh		  /usr/xpg4/bin/sh

       The getusershell() function opens the file /etc/shells, if it exists, and returns the next entry in the list of shells.

       The setusershell() function rewinds the file or the list.

       The endusershell() function closes the file, frees any memory used by getusershell() and setusershell(), and rewinds the file /etc/shells.

RETURN VALUES

       The getusershell() function returns a null pointer on EOF.

BUGS

       All information is contained in memory that may be freed with a call to endusershell(), so it must be copied if it is to be saved.
