 1           DEF     8
 2           ASC     9
 2           YHN     4

SELECT [Roll No], Name, Score, [ROW_NUMBER] = 
  ROW_NUMBER() OVER (PARTITION BY [Roll No] ORDER BY Score DESC)
FROM dbo.table
ORDER BY [Roll No], [ROW_NUMBER];

If you later decide that you want to handle ties in a different way, play with using RANK() or DENSE_RANK() in place of ROW_NUMBER()...
