You need to construct the ViewHolder when the convertView is not null by getting the tag back, so change your getView() to be:

@Override
public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {
    View result;
    final MyViewHolder myViewHolder;
    final Transacation transacation = arrlist.get(position);
    if (convertView == null) {
        convertView = inflater.inflate(R.layout.transaction_adapter, parent,
                false);
        myViewHolder = new MyViewHolder()
        myViewHolder.tv_date = convertView.findViewById(R.id.tv_date);
        myViewHolder.tv_status = convertView.findViewById(R.id.tv_status);
        myViewHolder.tv_expiry = convertView.findViewById(R.id.tv_expiry);
        myViewHolder.tv_amount = convertView.findViewById(R.id.tv_amount);

        result = convertView;
        convertView.setTag(myViewHolder);

    } else {
        result = convertView;
        myViewHolder = (MyViewHolder) convertView.getTag();
    }

    //        myViewHolder.tv_date.setText(""+new java.text.SimpleDateFormat("dd MMM").format(new java.util.Date (transacation.date)));
    if(transacation.transactionType.equals("CREDIT")){
        myViewHolder.tv_status.setText("Wallet Credited");
        myViewHolder.tv_expiry.setText("Expires on " + new java.text.SimpleDateFormat("dd MMM yyyy").format(new java.util.Date (transacation.expiry_date)));
        myViewHolder.tv_amount.setText("+₹" + transacation.n_amount);
        myViewHolder.tv_amount.setTextColor(Color.parseColor("#23DD47"));

    }
    else{
        myViewHolder.tv_status.setText("Wallet Expired");
        myViewHolder.tv_expiry.setVisibility(View.GONE);
        myViewHolder.tv_amount.setText("-₹" + transacation.n_amount);
        myViewHolder.tv_amount.setTextColor(Color.parseColor("#FB5151"));

    }

    return convertView;
}
