Hello @Arvind Swarnkar 

What you're looking at is Jira Cloud Migration Assistant (JCMA).  According to the documentation, it is pre-installed on Jira 8.14 and later, but can be installed as an Atlassian Marketplace app on Jira 7.6.

Thanks please help

1. As I am searching in search box "Jira Cloud Migration Assistant".. but no apps are coming

2. That means I have to update Jira version first from Jira 1.7.19 to 1.7.6

    Will you please guide how to update Jira version?

Take a look at this documentation https://confluence.atlassian.com/upm/installing-marketplace-apps-273875715.html

But it probably won't accept your version of Jira.  You're going to have to upgrade it to a newer version.  Because Server was EOL'd, you may have to make it a Data Center instance by installing a trial Data Center license, upgrading the version of Jira, and migrating to cloud.  You should probably set up a plan first.
