Dear Sanjay
Apply for N.O.C from RTA Muzzafarnagar for which you have to pay a reasonable fee. Thereafter deposit the same NOC with RTA of the Place where you have transferred. New RTA would charge reasonable administrative fee for a-fresh registration but in no case you are required to pay registration tax second time.
All the best
