Pradeep,
You need to get Digital Certificate from a vendor like Verisign etc. and then install it on your webserver.

Have Fun,

if u want to write code then checkout www.php.net
php supports SSL. It has some methods.

Pradeep,

Using Certificate Server 2.0 to Generate a Server Certificate for Use with IIS. Certificate Server 2.0 can be used to generate server certificates (as well as other types) for use with Internet Information Services (IIS) 5.0. The procedures described in this article assume that you have Certificate Server 2.0 installed as a Root Certificate authority (this is not a requirement for this to work; however, it adds more complexity to the steps you must follow). You must also have IIS 5.0 running on this computer (this does not need to be the computer that you are enabling SSL/TLS on).

Here is step by step article on this.

For your asp code - no changes or only minor changes. Change any reference to http to https in the script. It is not recommend to SSL for each pages in your web sites. Hence only certain areas. E.g. registration, authenication, payment and etc - those REALLY need to be secure.

here is another third part component you can try.
