try below code :-)

ASP.NET

<asp:Literal Text='<%#Limit(Eval("feedback_details"),40)%>' id="Literal1" runat="server"/>

C#

protected string Limit(object Desc, int length)
{
    StringBuilder strDesc = new StringBuilder();
    strDesc.Insert(0, Desc.ToString());
    string result ="";
    if (strDesc.Length > length)
    {
        result = strDesc.ToString().Substring(0, length) + "...";
    }
    else result =strDesc.ToString();
    return result.Replace(Environment.NewLine, "<br />");
}
