CSV data config always reads from first row. I want to add column headers in the CSV file. Hence I want the CSV config to start reading from second row.

Below is the setting in Thread Group. No.of threads = 1 Loop Count= 10 (depends on no.of rows in CSV file)

What version of JMeter are you using? It seems like leaving the Variable Names field empty will do the trick. More info here:

Versions of JMeter after 2.3.4 support CSV files which have a header line defining the column names. To enable this, leave the "Variable Names" field empty. The correct delimiter must be provided.

thanks @Jake... I am using Jmeter2.11, Leaving the variables name blank in CSV config and specifying column headers in CSV file solved the issue.

There is a field called "Ignore first line (only used if Variable Names is not empty)", set this to true.
