How can I copy (repeat) selectedCellsValue - till end of row.
Number of cells (i.e. Columns) in a row - varies (about 30).
Excel have that option named - autoFill - Copy.

Here is my try:

C#

int x = dgv.SelectedCells.Count;
foreach (DataGridViewCell c in dgv.CurrentRow.Cells)
{
    if (c.Selected == true)
    {
        string a = c.Value.ToString();
       x = x+1;
   dgvRasp.CurrentRow.Cells[x].Value = a;

   But it copies selectedeCells only once.

To Copy the contents of the current cell (click on a cell arrow navigate to a cell using arrow keys to make it a current) the KeyDown event of the DataGridView can be handled as shown below and the contents can be copied upto to the last cell in the current row when Ctrl+Enter is pressed.

C#

dataGridView1.KeyDown += (sender, args) => {
    if (!args.Control || args.KeyCode != Keys.Enter)
        return;
    var currentVal = dataGridView1.CurrentCell.Value;
    for(int i=dataGridView1.CurrentCell.ColumnIndex; i<dataGridView1.Columns.Count; i++){
        dataGridView1.CurrentRow.Cells[i].Value=currentVal;
    }
};
