Some kind of load balancing if possible, if you set the 1st device to primary for 1st VLAN, and set the 2nd device to primary on the 2nd VLAN. Real load balancing based on source addresses is not possible.

Hello Rupesh,
in HSRP / VRRP the only way to achieve load sharing in outbound direction is to use multiple HSRP / VRRP groups per IP subnet with different routers acting as master in each different group.
However, this requires different groups of end user devices to use a different default gateway, that of a specific HSRP/VRRP group VIP address
The use of multiple HSRP groups within an IP subnet/vlan is called MHSRP Multiple HSRP.
Hope to help

Hi,
you might also think about GLBP if load balancing is your goal?

GLBP is the way you can achive HSRP and VRRP are group based active standby whereas GLBP is active active and support Load balancing/sharing
GATEWAY LOAD BALANCING PROTOCOL (GLBP)
