The problem here is that in your Order class, your code is trying to get StringExtras of both getAllArea and Cheruvathur and this will lead to crash because only one of them exist since you are calling one Intent at a time. So one solution for this is that you can simply check if the Intent's StringExtras are not null and with little modification to your code it will work fine, try this.

Intent intent=getIntent();
if(intent.getStringExtra("getAllArea")!= null)
                list = new ArrayList<>();
                list.add("3G mobile : Chevtr");
                list.add("Spice World : kngd");
                list.add("Dotcom : nslrm");
                list.add("Pv Stores: Pya");
                list.add("Sky World : Pntur");
                list.add("Mobile Galaxy : trkppr");
                list.add("Dream Mobile : vlkdu");
                list.add("Tele World : Chevtr");
                list.add("Info Tech Solutions : Pya");
                list.add("MYG Mobile : trkppr");
              // adapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(this, android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, list);
             // listView.setAdapter(adapter);
            } 

else if(intent.getStringExtra("Cheruvathur")!= null)
          list1 = new ArrayList<>();
          list1.add("3G mobile : Chevtr");
          list1.add("Tele World : Chevtr"); 

         //  adapter = new ArrayAdapter<String>(this, android.R.layout.simple_list_item_1, list);
          // listView.setAdapter(adapter);
       }
