Hello Prathyusha,

Try the following code snippet to achieve your scenario.
C#:

protected void rad_ItemCreated(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
{
   if (e.Item is GridEditFormItem && e.Item.IsInEditMode && e.Item.OwnerTableView.IsItemInserted)
      {
         GridEditFormItem item = (GridEditFormItem)e.Item;
         TextBox txt = (TextBox)item["EmployeeID"].Controls[0];
         txt.Focus();
      }
}

Thanks,
Princy.

Thank you princy for immediate response.
I tried this solution
But focus is not staying , when I clicked on the Add new item.
Here is the code
If there is any mistake please let me know.

<

 

telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="BankName" UniqueName="BankName" HeaderText="<%$ Resources:lbl_Employee_BankName %>"

 

 

EditFormColumnIndex="0">

 

 

</telerik:GridBoundColumn>

 

if

 

(e.Item is GridEditFormItem && e.Item.IsInEditMode && e.Item.OwnerTableView.IsItemInserted)

 

{

 

GridEditFormItem item = (GridEditFormItem)e.Item;

 

 

TextBox txt = (TextBox)item["BankName"].Controls[0];

 

 

// EmployeeBankAccountRadGrid.Controls.Add(new LiteralControl

 

 

//(String.Format("<script type='text/javascript'>document.getElementById('{0}').focus();document.getElementById('{0}').scrollIntoView();</script>", item.FindControl("BankName").ClientID)));

 

txt.Focus();

}

For template column it is working, If I use javascript code which in the above code. But same code is not working for  GridBound column.

Could some one please suggest either of way to fix this issue.
Thank you.
