I have a pair of tiels Cupid and Psyche they are 8 moth old. They trust me enough to get on my palm or fingers to get treats. So how should I train them to take outside the cage? If so then should I leave them to explore my room outside their cage?

You can let them out, but getting them BACK in might be a problem. Just leave the cage door open and feed & water them. Make sure they see you do it! Offer them treats if that doesn't work such as millet. If and when you do let them out, be SURE and keep a close eye on them as tiels love to explore.

I keep my tiels cage 3 feet high from the ground near the window. So for taking them out of the cage should I place the cage on the floor?
P.S. They have clipped wings.
If they have clipped wings, then it’s going to be easier for you to put them back in the cage after you take them out. When you take them out, you have to make sure there isn’t anything toxic in their reach.

I wouldn't worry about placing the cage on the floor but if there wings are clipped, ALL the more reason to keep a close eye on them as they have no defense to fly off should other pets ( dogs or cats ) decide to bother them,.
