Add in Gridview

<asp:templatefield headertext="Download" xmlns:asp="#unknown">
<itemtemplate>
<asp:imagebutton id="btnDownload" runat="server" tooltip="Download" imageurl="~/Images/icon/Download.ico">
CommandName="Download" CommandArgument='<%# Bind("ReportName") %>' />

<itemstyle width="10%">

Add below code in row command

protected void gvReport_RowCommand(object sender, GridViewCommandEventArgs e)
{
try
{
if (e.CommandName == "Download")
{
string CommandArgument = e.CommandArgument.ToString();

string path = "./";
string serverPath = HttpContext.Current.Server.MapPath(path);
string pdfpath = serverPath + "QuarterlyReports\\" + CommandArgument + ".pdf";

//Response.Redirect(fileName);
Response.ContentType = "application/pdf";
Response.AppendHeader("Content-Disposition", "attachment; filename=" + Path.GetFileName(pdfpath));
Response.TransmitFile(pdfpath);
//HttpContext.Current.ApplicationInstance.CompleteRequest();
Response.End();

}
catch (Exception ex)
{

}

protected void gd_cat_RowCommand(object sender, GridViewCommandEventArgs e)
{
if (e.CommandName == "downLoad")
{
DataTable dt = new DataTable();
Int32 id = Convert.ToInt32(e.CommandArgument);
p.Admin_Flag = 8;
p.Id = id;
p.Post_Date = System.DateTime.Now.Date;
dt = b.Job_Applied_GridShow(p);
if (dt.Rows.Count > 0)
{
string filepath = "~/" + dt.Rows[0]["file_path"].ToString();

//.......................................................
string path = Server.MapPath(filepath);
//get physical file path from server
string name = Path.GetFileName(path);
//get file name
string ext = Path.GetExtension(path);
//get file extension
string type = "";
// set known types based on file extension
if (ext != null)
{
switch (ext.ToLower())
{
// case ".htm":
// case ".html":
// type = "text/HTML";
// break;
// case ".txt":
// type = "text/plain";
// break;
// case ".GIF":
