After going through the documentation and testing of SAP DB , I would like to use SAP DB as the database for the windows based application.
Good choice SAP DB is an exelent DBMS.

Can you please advise me how can I distribute SAP DB to them?
Put it on your distribution media (CD or whatever)

The clients are very much concenrned about the cost of the database.
Easy, as Free Software it doesn't cost anything (but you can still charge for it if you want to make an extra buck, hint, hint)

If I bundle the SAP DB server database along with my
developed application and distributing it thourgh CD ROM, do I have to
pay for SAP DB?
No.

SAP DB is Free Software, please read this exelent explaination of that concept: http://www.fsf.org/philosophy/free-sw.html

Simply speaking, as long as you don't change the SAP DB DBMS itself you have nothing at all to think about, do with it whatever you want to if you change the SAP DB source (not many people do that:) then you must provide the source to those changed to your customers.

Strictly speaking your customers may request that you distribute the SAP DB source to them, but they may obtain the source from http://sapdb.org so there is no real need to do that.
