Thanks,
my actual requirement was to run ssh using ShellExecuteEx 
The above method means i have run an extra "cmd.exe"
which I wanted to avoid.

Any way ShellExecuteEx with following argument is working
SHELLEXECUTEINFO.lpFile as "cmd.exe"
SHELLEXECUTEINFO.lpParameters and as 
"/c set DISPLAY=localhost:0.0 & ssh -X userid@server"
