On Grid Data Bound..

Add the following script to show Message.

 //ondatabound on user assginment grid grid
    function onUserAssignGridDataBound(e) {

        //Get the number of Columns in the grid
        var colCount = $("#UserAssignGrid").find('.k-grid-header colgroup > col').length;

        //If There are no results place an indicator row
        if ($("#UserAssignGrid").data("kendoGrid").dataSource._view.length == 0) {
            $("#UserAssignGrid").find('.k-grid-content tbody')
                .append('No Results Found!');

        }
