The reason that you are getting the last value because you are updating/overwriting the lblAssId.Text in your loop.

You can solve this issue either by adding each value to a list and display the values from the list. Or add the last label value to the existing Session.

Like

C#

Session["AssId"] = Session["AssId"].ToString() + " " + lblAssId.Text;

Or

C#

List<string> AssIds = new List<string>();
for (int i = 0; i < grdApproval.Rows.Count; i++)
{
  LinkButton lblAssId = (LinkButton)grdApproval.Rows[i].FindControl("lnkAssId");
  AssIds.Add(lblAssId.Text);
}
Sesion["AssId"] = AssIds;

Then write all the values in the list with a foreach or for loop.

Good luck,
