Ok, my guess (as there's not enough of the error logs to be sure, but maybe enough from the pointers you have expanded on) is that you have a scriptrunner scripted field in the new issue that either

* cannot be calculated as it doesn't exist for the target type
* cannot be calculated because the target issue type does not have access to things the script is trying to use (and the script isn't coded to protect itself against that, the writer has just assumed the data will always be there)

I would start with a look through the list of all your custom fields, looking for scripted fields and noting the ones that are valid for your target project and issue type, and then have a look at the scripts behind each one

I have just used "move" option on the story issue that needs conversion wherein I choose destination project and issue type as bug and then fill in mandatory fields in "update fields" tab and submit and I get those errors.

I did notice that Update fields tab has lot more different fields that create screen in bug issue doesn't have and we have some validators for creating bug where those fields were displayed while manually creating issue but they were missing in update fields tab while moving the issue.

You need to look at how you are doing this "move" to see where a script might be being used.

I had assumed you were running a script (and hence knew where it was) because you only gave us errors implying it was a problem in a script.
