        using (con)
        {
            con.Open();
            SqlDataReader reader = cmd.ExecuteReader();

            if (reader.Read())
            {
                lblUpdate.Text = DateTime.Parse(reader["Timelupdate "].ToString()).ToString("dd/MM/yyyy hh:mm tt");

                lblUpdate.ForeColor = Color.Red;

Solution 2

HH      display two-digit hours on 24-hour scale

Format string pattern

MMM     display three-letter month
ddd     display three-letter day of the WEEK
d       display day of the MONTH
HH      display two-digit hours on 24-hour scale
mm      display two-digit minutes
yyyy    display four-digit year
