I have a backup of my previous MIUI ROM(using TWRP), and presently, I am on custom ROM called cyonogenmod. Now, I need to restore my previous user apps(apps that are installed from Play Store) and its data that run on MIUI to new ROM. How can it be done? Is this possible?

It can be done with Titanium Backup, see titanium-backup tag for more details. From Main Menu of app access Extract from Titanium Backup option and you would be able to choose the apps which you can restore. This is fine if you are talking of third party apps
File-carving technologies on the Nandroid images (see our data-recovery [tag-wiki] would also do this ( I am not conversant with this ). You can read more here Are there any downsides to using a nandroid recovery?. Also see this for other possibilities Restore only part of nandroid image

I don't need system apps to be restored, other applications which I have installed using play store – Rahul Gopi Sep 12 '16 at 05:56

In which case first two bullet points answer your question – beeshyams Sep 12 '16 at 06:05

Simplest would be Titanium Backup option but it takes some time for it to read the Nandroid backup – beeshyams Sep 12 '16 at 06:09

Whether, I need to be in pro version of Titanium backup? – Rahul Gopi Sep 12 '16 at 06:19

I don't recall, sorry, I always used the pro version. You can try- of it is supported only in pro version, then try the second bullet option – beeshyams Sep 12 '16 at 06:21

Sorry. I have restored back previous stable version using TWRP itself. – Rahul Gopi Sep 13 '16 at 15:07

That obvious solution was not included in the answer for a good reason - you could run into problems since what is installed app on one device could be system app on another device / ROM as per your question. That is a risky option and only safe options were presented. BTW, I hope you took care not to restore / EFS , your IMEI could be messed up, if you did – beeshyams Sep 13 '16 at 16:16
