Hey Suresh,
You can use cell_endedit event of datagridview to add automatically value in datagridview. You can take a look of following code snippet to perform this task.
/// <summary>
/// You can use cell end edit event to perform automatic insertion of value.
/// </summary>
private void dataGridView1_CellEndEdit(object sender, DataGridViewCellEventArgs e)
{
    //Suppose that column index is 3 where you want to insert datetime
    //value automatically.
    if (e.RowIndex > -1 && e.ColumnIndex == 3)
    {//This condition will insure correct cell is clicked.
 
                //dataGridView1[3, e.RowIndex] will represent modified cell.
                dataGridView1[3, e.RowIndex].Value = DateTime.Now;
    }
}

Thanks.

I am unable to understand you question properly...please try to explain your question..
If you talking about  ( the date time should be inserted automatically in the database then for that you can use trigger in database)
