For asp.net mvc wrapper you should use something like this:

@{
     var counter = 1;
}

@( Html.Kendo().Grid()
   .Name("grid")
   .Columns(columns =>
   {           
        // Define a template column with row counter
       columns.Template(@@counter++);    

       // Define a columns from your data set and set a column setting
       columns.Bound(type => type.id);    

       columns.Bound(type=> type.name).Title("Name");    
       // add more columns here          
   })
)
