Try these commands:

WMIC USERACCOUNT WHERE "Name='username_here'" SET PasswordExpires=FALSE

OR

net user username_here /expires:never

Found on Google on first result. Google query was "set user to never expire password command line".

thanx for replying but both of them are not working.

The reason this is happening is because the NET ACCOUNTS command is for changing the local user policy to pertaining to account creation. When you force that command you are changing ALL accounts to have their password never expire. Because it is set through policy, you wont see the checkbox checked, but it probably won't expire. I haven't tested it, but that is what I can gather from reading about the command itself.
