The "politically" correct answer or one of them is as follows.
I am not necessarily looking to just "change" my job. I am seeking the opportunity to accept new challenges with the experience I have gained, and I am looking for a forward thinking (progressive) company that will allow me the opportunity to learn new techniques and methods that will further enhance my knowledge and allow me to contribute to that company's future success.
HR people gobble it up!

Be careful how you answer this question. This question is designed to uncover career negatives to disqualify you. It is an open ended question and let you open up and walk right into quick sand.
There is a negative every time someone changes jobs. However, remember the Titanic? It was not the tip of the iceberg that sunk the ship but it was always the base. Never dwell on that subject and never let them chip at the base of your problem that cause you to look else where.
Know all your career negatives including the reason you are looking. For every negative, come up with some reasonable short answers. When the issue is raised, acknowledge the concern, verify the reason behind the question by asking "Sure I will be delighted to share with you my reasons. By the way how is that important to this particular position"? Satisfy the questioner with a career success story to overcome the potention objection and move on quickly to the next by asking "Does that answer you question about such and such"? Then the next wards out of your mouth would be "what else would you like to know about me"?

This is a common question in most of the interviews for all except freshers. Never put down your present company in any way. Rather highlight the advantages in your new job and company
Say that the my present job is pretty good but the chances of learning new things are limited hence I am looking for an organization like this where i will provided opportunities to grow

I interview people for a living and the standard answer I hear all the time is to grow with another company or you are ready for some change.

My MBA course relating to HR subject taught me that changing jobs every 2 years would be a new trend now-a-days.
Good Luck,

you got to be rational in anwering this question either it is the jump in salary, location, trade, designation, profile, internal reason etc. but you got to be comprehensive in your approach as it is not a taboo or sin to change a job, everybody aspires to look for progress, growth and convenience.
