public class Best_Product extends BaseAdapter {
    View gridView;
    private Context context;

    private ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>> MyArr = new ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>>();
    Function_List fun_lib = new Function_List();
    public Best_Product(Context c,ArrayList<HashMap<String, String>> json_value) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        context = c;
        MyArr = json_value;
    }

    public int getCount() {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        int total_size = MyArr.size();
        Log.d("size of item", "" + MyArr.size());
            if((MyArr.size()%2)==0)
            {
                // do nothing 
            }
            else
            {
                total_size = MyArr.size()+1;
            }

        return total_size;
    }

    public Object getItem(int position) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        return position;
    }

    public long getItemId(int position) {
        // TODO Auto-generated method stub
        HashMap<String, String> mapAtPostion = MyArr.get(position);
        return Long.valueOf(MyArr.get(position).get("product_id"));

    }

    public View getView(int position, View convertView, ViewGroup parent) {

        View view = convertView;
        RelativeLayout background_color; // this will be the Relativelayout of the content of GridView. you will be set backgroud color of last item 
        LayoutInflater inflater = (LayoutInflater) context
                .getSystemService(Context.LAYOUT_INFLATER_SERVICE);
            if (view == null) {
                view = new View(context);
                view = inflater.inflate(R.layout.home_best_collection_content, parent, false);
                background_color = (RelativeLayout)view.findViewById(R.id.bckground);
                    //checking last item of the array
                if(position ==MyArr.size()-1)
                {
                    //change the last item background color
                    background_color.setBackgroundColor();
                }
                else
                {
                        // do the work here 
                }
            }
            else
            {

            }
        return view;
    }
}

Please try this code and let me know any problem, thanks

that's the default behaviour, it should show the background "empty space" since there is no more rows to be inserted in row number 6.
if i were you, i had get rid of GridView and use RecyclerView and use StaggeredLayoutManager or GridLayoutManager to have more controls over the span counts and could modify them accordingly.
