Got it you can just use

     <asp:TemplateField HeaderText="Economic year">
                        <ItemTemplate>
                            <asp:HyperLink ID="Id" runat="server" NavigateUrl='<%# Eval("Id", "P_ProfitLossADD.aspx?id={0}") %>'
                                Text='<%# Eval("Date","{0:yyyy}") %>'></asp:HyperLink>
                        </ItemTemplate>
                        <ItemStyle HorizontalAlign="Right" Wrap="False" />
                    </asp:TemplateField>
