Hi,
For this you can use RowDataBound event of gridview. refer this:

C#

protected void GVSummaryTable_RowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)
{
    if (e.Row.Cells.Count > 0)
    {
        //Translate header text
        if (e.Row.RowType == DataControlRowType.Header)
        {
            e.Row.Cells[0].Text = DateTime.Now.toString();
        }
    }
}

This may help you.
All the best.
