Answer 1

Initialize a variable and show it in column as template: "#= ++record #"

Working Demo

Here is code:

var record = 0;

$("#grid").kendoGrid({
  dataSource: {
    data: [{ foo: "foo" },{ foo: "foo" },{ foo: "foo" },{ foo: "foo" },{ foo: "foo" },{ foo: "foo" },{ foo: "foo" },{ foo: "foo" },{ foo: "foo" },{ foo: "foo" },{ foo: "foo" },{ foo: "foo" },{ foo: "foo" },{ foo: "foo" },{ foo: "foo" },{ foo: "foo" },{ foo: "foo" },{ foo: "foo" },{ foo: "foo" },{ foo: "foo" },{ foo: "foo" },{ foo: "foo" },{ foo: "foo" },{ foo: "foo" },{ foo: "foo" },{ foo: "foo" },{ foo: "foo" },{ foo: "foo" }, { foo: "foo" }, { foo : "foo1" }],
    pageSize: 10
  },
  sortable: true,
  columns: [ {
    title: " ",
    template: "#= ++record #",
    width: 30
  }, { field: "foo" }],
  pageable: true,
  dataBinding: function() {
    record = (this.dataSource.page() -1) * this.dataSource.pageSize();
  }
});
