Add timeout of your SqlCommand  Please note time is in second      Setting command timeout to 1 second scGetruntotals CommandTimeout   1

Setting CommandTimeout to 120 is not recommended  Try using pagination as mentioned above  Setting CommandTimeout to 30 is considered as normal  Anything more than that is consider bad approach and that usually concludes something wrong with the Implementation  Now the world is running on MiliSeconds Approach

Since it takes 2 mins to respond  you can increase the timeout to 3 mins by adding the below code  scGetruntotals CommandTimeout   180    Note   the parameter value is in seconds

Setting command timeout to 2 minutes    scGetruntotals CommandTimeout   120    but you can optimize your stored Procedures to decrease that time  like    removing courser or while and etc using paging using  tempTable and  variableTable optimizing joined tables

it takes this command about 2 mins to return the data as there is a lot of data   Probably  Bad Design  Consider using paging here       default connection time is 30 secs  how do I increase this   As you are facing a timeout on your command  therefore you need to increase the timeout of your sql command  You can specify it in your command like this     Setting command timeout to 2 minutes scGetruntotals CommandTimeout   120
