What will happen to my son existing dependant Visa.

Nothing. It will remain valid as it currently is, until the expiry date given on the visa.

Whether the Visa will transfer to New passport without submitting any application

If you wish to transfer the visa on to a new passport then you need to apply for TOC.

Do I need to submit the New dependant application form for my son.

No.

In case I need to submit the new application , can I submit the new application in UK

TOC can only be applied for in the UK.

Simple answer - Travel with both passports (expired/cancelled passport with visa + new passport).
