   Earlier my website direcory was like
   in Root- main site was installed.
   in /Root/sub another sub domain was installed.

   Now I purchased new hosting. Since they provide one free domain so I Bought a domain for my sub domain.

   So now contents of sub are in /Root and

   Contents of main are in /Root/Main [Another folder]

   Now sub is working fine. And what I have to update for Main to work fine ?? I have to update index.php and .htaccess but if I move them to root. der are files already present for my "SUB" domian .

   Please give me solution.

   Thank you very much Abhishek. Your links did help me.

   The solution which I found is, Since I moved files to new directory. I have to change Site Address (URL). I can do it in wp_options.

   would this change my website's all urls ?? :( :( [I am worried] I would lose my all traffic.

   Normally it will work fine. Still, use Search and Replace Plugin to find any odd / wrong URL : http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/search-and-replace/

   I found solution for my issue.

   Since I did not want to update my site links, I changed my primary domain in hosting site. So my Main contents are placed back i Root and sub contents are in Root/sub

   Issue is resolved then.
