Hello Chituraj,

You can try out the following code instead to access the DropDownList on clicking the button:
c#:

protected void RadGrid_ItemCommand(object source, GridCommandEventArgs e)
    {
        if (e.CommandName == "Add")
        {
            GridDataItem item = (GridDataItem)e.Item;
            hdnManufacturer  = (HiddenField)item.FindControl("hdnmanufacturer");
            DropDownList dlManufacturer = (DropDownList)item.EditFormItem.FindControl("ddlManufacturer");

        }
    }

Thanks
Princy.
