Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
If Target.Cells.Count = 1 Then
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("D:D")) Is Nothing Then
With Target(1, 0)
.Value = Date & " " & Time
.EntireColumn.AutoFit
End With
i = 2 '2 indicates from where the date will appear
While Cells(i, 2).Value <> ""
Cells(i, 1).Value = Cells(i, 1).Row - 1 '-1 is connected with i=2

Test this:
VBA Code:
Private Sub Worksheet_Change(ByVal Target As Range)
Dim i As Long
If Target.Cells.Count = 1 Then
If Not Intersect(Target, Range("D:D")) Is Nothing Then
With Target(1, 0)
.Value = Date & " " & Time
.EntireColumn.AutoFit
End With
With Target(1, -1)
.Value = Target(1, 0).Value
.NumberFormat = "#.00"
.EntireColumn.AutoFit
End With
i = 2 '2 indicates from where the date will appear
While Cells(i, 2).Value <> ""
Cells(i, 1).Value = Cells(i, 1).Row - 2 '-1 is connected with i=2
Cells(i, 1).Value = Cells(i, 1).Row - 1
i = i + 1
Wend
End If
Else
Range("D1").Value = Range("D1").Value
