Hi Ankit,
the scrbook.cls class and the fancyhdr.sty package are standard
packages in the TeXLive distribution. You should already have them on
your hard drive. One of the following things may have gone wrong:
1. You installed TeXLive *after* you installed LyX.
LyX still thinks you don't have a working installation and chokes.
Solution: Reconfigure LyX (Tools>>Reconfigure) and restart LyX.
2. Your TexLive installation is incomplete.
This is possible (although scrbook.cls is one of the basic classes)
and Ubuntu's support of TeXLive leaves much to be desired. Check your
installation by compiling the sample file (sample2e.tex) it provides
from the commands line. In the standard texlive this file is at
/usr/local/texlive/2013/texmf-dist/tex/latex/base/sample2e.tex
Ubuntu may have put it somewhere else. You may also want to check the
scrbook class (just edit the sample23.tex file and change
\documentclass{article} to \documentclass{scrbook}
3. Finally, there may a problem with your paths, especially if you
launch lyx from a desktop utility instead of from the command line. In
LyX, Tools>>TeX Information should show you where LyX thinks your
classes and style files are (tick the "Show path" check box).
Hope it helps,
Stefano
