                        <ItemTemplate>
                            <asp:Label ID="lbl_tax_status" runat="server"><%# (Boolean.Parse(Eval("tax_status").ToString())) ? "Yes" : "No" %></asp:Label>

Assuming the data type of your tax_status column is bit, try:

ASP.NET

<EditItemTemplate>
    <asp:DropDownList ID="tax_status" runat="server" SelectedValue='<%# Bind("tax_status") %>'>
        <asp:ListItem Value="True">Yes</asp:ListItem>
        <asp:ListItem Value="False">No</asp:ListItem>
    </asp:DropDownList>
</EditItemTemplate>
