Try LINQ,

var result = from tab in dt.AsEnumerable()
              group tab by tab["Group"]
                into groupDt
                 select new 
                  { 
                    Group = groupDt.Key,  
                    Sum=groupDt.Sum((r)=> decimal.Parse(r["Rate"].ToString()))
                  };
