Hello Syed,

You can set the width of columns using the HeaderStyle for the column as shown below:
aspx:

 <telerik:GridBoundColumn DataField="Category" HeaderText="Category"  UniqueName="Category">
        <HeaderStyle Width="30px" />
 </telerik:GridBoundColumn>

Also if you want to set the width of the textboxes in Edit/Insert modes of your grid, you can try out the following code:
c#:

protected void RadGrid1_ItemCreated(object sender, GridItemEventArgs e)
    {
        if ((e.Item is GridEditableItem) && (e.Item.IsInEditMode))
        {
            GridEditableItem edititem = (GridEditableItem)e.Item;
            TextBox txtbx = (TextBox)edititem["ColumnUniqueName"].Controls[0];
            txtbx.Width = Unit.Pixel(100);
        }

    }

Thanks
Princy.
