Solution 2

You can render the gridview in HTML and send it as email body
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder(); 
StringWriter sw = new StringWriter(sb);
HtmlTextWriter hw = new HtmlTextWriter(sw); 
GridView1.RenderControl(hw);

sb.ToString() will be included in email body

I only need to know how to send this data
Email text goes in 'Body' property.

Now, you need to define how or what all you want to send in an email. Sending a datatable does not make any sense. You have to format the data in some readable/understandable format.

Add a text around it with value form datatable. Form the complete string and then pass it on to body of email.
