Use itemTemplate and then in rowdatebound event put the row index + 1 in that template....for example

<asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Edit/Delete">

           <ItemTemplate>

                            <asp:Label ID="lblSnNo" runat="Server" />

           </ItemTemplate>

</asp:TemplateField>

and in code behind

    Private Sub gvCommon_RowDataBound(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.Web.UI.WebControls.GridViewRowEventArgs) Handles gvCommon.RowDataBound

        If e.Row.RowType = DataControlRowType.DataRow Then

            CType(e.Row.FindControl("lblSnNo"), Label).Text = e.Row.RowIndex + 1

        End If

    End Sub
