You can save index position in your data model for each item and refer to it inside ViewHolder — lubilis, Jun 06 '16 at 08:19

RecyclerView holder already has getAdapterPosition() and getLayoutPosition() methods From the Docs:

final int   getAdapterPosition()
Returns the Adapter position of the item represented by this ViewHolder.

final int   getLayoutPosition()
Returns the position of the ViewHolder in terms of the latest layout pass.
