Solution 1

If you don't already have the date as an instance of the DateTime structure[^], use DateTime.TryParseExact()[^] to get it there.

Then, you can use the DateTime.ToString(string)[^] overload to specify what you want it to be displayed as.

Check whether your column is taking datetime value but with a varchar format.

Column format should be DateTime then you can change it's format to
in Backend
date.ToString("yyyy-MM-dd");

and in Html gridview design side do as above article
DataFormatString="{0:yyyy-MM-dd}"

N.B.

Just make sure you set the HtmlEncode attribute to False or it won't work.
