fix the width (as required )of each column of your gridview

see below example.

XML

<asp:GridView ID="GridView1" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False">
            <Columns>
                <asp:BoundField HeaderText="col1">
                    <ItemStyle Width="200px" />
                </asp:BoundField>
                <asp:BoundField HeaderText="col2">
                    <ItemStyle Width="50px" />
                </asp:BoundField>
            </Columns>
        </asp:GridView>
