Both cause damp walls — but fixing the wrong one fails next monsoon.

Rising damp shows up to 1m from floor — salt deposits, tide marks. Lateral seepage from adjacent bathroom or external wall affects mid-height patches. Ground floor flats in old Guwahati buildings often have both. Moisture meter profiling at multiple heights distinguishes them.
