You can't add exactly the same row again. You will need to create a new row and populate it with the values from the row you are duplicating instead, then add the new row to the grvList.Rows

I am not sure what sorts of values you have in each cell, but as long as they are value types something like the following should work:

    For Each m_row As System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewRow In Me.grvList.Rows
        If m_row.Cells("chksel").Value = True Then
            'Create new row to hold duplicated values
            Dim NewRow As DataRow = grvList.NewRow()
            'loop thru existing rows to copy values
            For i As Integer = 0 To m_row.Cells.Count - 1
                NewRow(i) = m_row.Cells(i).Value
            Next
            'Add newly create row to table
            Me.grvList.Rows.Add(NewRow)
            '  Me.grvList.Rows.Remove(m_row)
        End If
    Next

Keep in mind that if the items in any of the cells are reference types that you will still be referencing the same item, instead of creating a copy of the item. Much as you were doing by simply calling add on the same row you located.

Sorry, I missed that the rows were DataGridView rows, rather than a datatable that was bound... this should do the trick in that case:

            For Each m_row As System.Windows.Forms.DataGridViewRow In Me.grvList.Rows
                If m_row.Cells("chksel").Value = True Then
                    'Create new row to hold duplicated values
                     Dim NewRow As DataGridViewRow = m_row.Clone
                     'Add newly create row to table
                     Me.grvLIst.Rows.Add(NewRow)
                End If
            Next

'To copy Row
Private Sub CopyButton_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles CopyButton.Click
    CopyRowIndex = DGV1.CurrentRow.Index
End Sub

'To Paste Row
Private Sub PasteButton_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles PasteButton.Click
    PasteRowIndex = DGV1.CurrentRow.Index
    For index As Int32 = 0 To DGV1.ColumnCount - 1
        DGV1.Rows(CInt(PasteRowIndex)).Cells(index).Value = DGV1.Rows(CInt(CopyRowIndex)).Cells(index).Value
    Next

End Sub

'To Duplicate Rows
Private Sub DuplicateButton_Click(sender As System.Object, e As System.EventArgs) Handles DuplicateButton.Click
    CopyRowIndex = DGV1.CurrentRow.Index
    DGV1.Rows.Add()
    DuplicateRowIndex = DGV1.Rows.Count - 1
    For index As Int32 = 0 To DGV1.ColumnCount - 1
        DGV1.Rows(CInt(DuplicateRowIndex)).Cells(index).Value = DGV1.Rows(CInt(CopyRowIndex)).Cells(index).Value
    Next
End Sub
