I want to get timestamp so that we can do comparison on it as numeric comparison instead of data comparison.

Use DateTimeOffset.ToUnixTimeSeconds method to get time stamp. It will returns the number of seconds that have elapsed since 1970-01-01T00:00:00Z.

To get the timestamp from a DateTime:

DateTime foo = DateTime.Now;
long unixTime = ((DateTimeOffset)foo).ToUnixTimeSeconds();
