Solution

H2SO4 is a stronger acid than H2SO3.
The oxidation state of S is more in H2SO4 which is +7 as compared to +4 in H2SO3.
Greater is the oxidation state of central atom, the more it attracts the electrons towards itself and also, more it stabilises the conjugate base.
Therefore, H2SO4 is a stronger acid.
