it sometimes occurs when we use a custom adapter in any activity of fragment . and we return null object i.e null view so the activity gets confused which view to load , so that is why this exception occurs

shows the position where to change the view

in your baseadapter class constructor try to initialize LayoutInflater  normally i preferred this way   public ClassBaseAdapter Context context ArrayList lt Integer gt  listLoanAmount        this context   context      this listLoanAmount   listLoanAmount      this layoutInflater   LayoutInflater from context       at the top of the class create LayoutInflater variable  hope this will help you
