I have created one Azure Function App in an existing Azure Resource Group. While creating a Function App, by mistake I didn't notice the selected region, and it got created in "South Central US" region. After a significant development, I realized this mistake, and now want to move it to "West Europe" region, so it gets aligned with rest of my resources.

Any idea of how I can move a resource from one region to other region, without deleting and recreating?

There is still no way to change your deployment from one region to the other. You'll have to create another Azure Function in that correct region and redeploy your application.
