This is my current code i am using.

private CommandArg GetUpdateCommentArgs(int rowIndex) { var retVal = new CommandArg { ObjectParamCollection = new Dictionary() };

        var commentTxt = new string[] { };
        object val = null;

        var cmtTb = GridView1.Rows[rowIndex].FindControl("txtComments") as TextBox;
        if (cmtTb != null)
        {
            cmtTb.Text = cmtTb.Text.Replace("\r\n", " ");
            var los = cmtTb.Text.Length;
            if (los > 100) cmtTb.Text = cmtTb.Text.Substring(0, 100);
            commentTxt =  los > 50
                             ? new[] {cmtTb.Text.Substring(0, 50), cmtTb.Text.Substring(50)}
                             : new[] {cmtTb.Text};

        }
        var key = GridView1.DataKeys[rowIndex];
        if (key != null)
            val = key.Value;

        if (Page is ClaimBase)
        {
            var p = Page as ClaimBase;
            var ci = p.ClaimantInfoHelper;

            if (ci != null)
            {
                if (val != null)

                    if (Int32.TryParse(val.ToString(), out seq))
                    {
                        var cmtInput = new CommentUpdateInputEntity

                        retVal.ObjectParamCollection.Add("entity", cmtInput);
                    }

I'm not sure I'm reading what you're asking correctly, but it looks like you just need to replace this line

 cmtTb.Text = cmtTb.Text.Replace("\r\n", " "); 

with this one

 cmtTb.Text = cmtTb.Text.Replace("\r\n", "<br />");
