Anuj Joshi 16 Migrating Roles using ANT
Hi,
I have roles in one org which have to be migrated into other org. The migration has to be done in such a way that all roles should come under a specific role present in other org. If I deploy AS-IS the roles are created are being created at the bottom

These items are supported by the metadata API, so you can use the likes of Eclipse/Force CLI/Migration tool. However, you need API access, So if you are on Professional Edition the answer will be no.
If the org's are joined (i.e. sandbox/production, sandbox/sandbox) you also have the option of change sets, but if you are looking to migrate from one dev org to another you can't use this mechanism.
There is also a hacky solution for migrating roles in salesforce.
It involves using the Apex Data Loader to export/import the Role table and using some CSV parsing scripts to parse and manipulate values. (Unfortunately, it doesn't help when it comes to sharing rules)
