We can add colors to the grid rows based on conditions.
suppose if we have a table where we store the empoyee names
and we should show the colors for rows of the grid based on the experinece of employee.

say if experinece is 2 years show green
if exp is 4 show red
and so on

We should handle using the gridview RowDataBound event

DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1" onrowdatabound="GridView1_RowDataBound">

SortExpression="experience" />

protected void GridView1_RowDataBound(object sender, GridViewRowEventArgs e)
{
try
{
if (e.Row.RowType.Equals( DataControlRowType.DataRow))
{
DataRowView drv = (DataRowView)e.Row.DataItem;
for (int i = 0; i < drv.DataView.Table.Columns.Count; i++)
{

if ((int)DataBinder.Eval(e.Row.DataItem, "experience") == 2)
e.Row.Cells[i].BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.LawnGreen;
if ((int)DataBinder.Eval(e.Row.DataItem, "experiece") == 4)
e.Row.Cells[i].BackColor = System.Drawing.Color.Red;
}
}
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
Response.Write(ex.ToString());
}
}
