Use Datagridview's CurrentCellDirtyStateChanged event

C#

Private void dgv1_CurrentCellDirtyStateChanged(Object sender, System.EventArgs e) 
{
            If (dgv1.IsCurrentCellDirty)
            {
                dgv1.CommitEdit(DataGridViewDataErrorContexts.Commit)
                If (dgv1.CurrentCell.ColumnIndex == 1 || dgv1.CurrentCell.ColumnIndex == 2)//columnindex of qty & rate column
                {  
                    decimal qty = 0.0;
                    decimal Rate= 0.0;
                    if(Decimal.TryParse(dgv1.Rows[dgv1.CurrentCell.RowIndex].Cells["ColQty"].Value, qty)==true)
                    {
                        qty = dgv1.Rows[dgv1.CurrentCell.RowIndex].Cells["ColQty"].Value;
                    }
                   if(Decimal.TryParse(dgv1.Rows[dgv1.CurrentCell.RowIndex].Cells["ColRate"].Value, Rate)==true)
                    {
                        Rate = dgv1.Rows[dgv1.CurrentCell.RowIndex].Cells["ColRate"].Value;
                    }
                 dgv1.Rows[dgv1.CurrentCell.RowIndex].Cells["ColTotal"].Value =  qty * Rate;
                }
            }
}

Happy Coding!
