Accepted answer
protected void GridView1_RowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)
{
if (e.Row.RowIndex >= 0)
{

e.Row.Cells[3].BackColor = Color.Red;

}
}

In html in grid tag define RowDataBound

if it is windows form at end of the button click event

for (int i = 0; i < GridView1.Rows.Count; i++)
{
GridView1.Rows[i].Cells[0].Style.BackColor = /*color you want*/
}

this is my code
protected void Buttonsubmit_Click(object sender, EventArgs e)
       {
           string s1 = txtempsearch.Text;
           string output = s1.Substring(s1.Length - 4,4);


           GridView1.Visible = true;
           SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection(abcd);
           con.Open();

           SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("query", con);

           cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@userid", output);
           SqlDataAdapter da = new SqlDataAdapter(cmd);
           con.Close();
           DataSet ds = new DataSet();
           da.Fill(ds);
           GridView1.DataSource = ds;
           GridView1.DataBind();


           if (GridView1.Rows.Count == 0)
           {
               Panelprojectdashboard1.Visible = false;
              // paneldashboard.Visible = false;
              // flip1.Visible = false;
           }
           else
           {

               Panelprojectdashboard1.Visible = true;
              // paneldashboard.Visible = true;
               //flip1.Visible = true;
               Bindchart1();
               BindChart2();
               GridView3_Show();
               GridView4_Show();
               GridView6_Show();


           }

       }

try this

protected void OnRowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)
{
if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.DataRow)
{
TableCell cell = e.Row.Cells[1];
cell.BackColor = Color.Red;

}
}
