    I found the solution and the below is the code sample for updating the Entity Security Group. The below update the Display Group for an entity 

     

    'Assign the Display Group 
Dim objWritableMember As WritableMember = BRApi.Finance.Members.ReadWritableMemberNoCache(si, dimTypeId.Entity, EntityName)
objWritableMember.ReadDataGroupUniqueID2 = BRApi.Security.Admin.GetGroup(si,ReadDataGroup2).Group.UniqueID
BRapi.Finance.MemberAdmin.SaveMemberInfo(si,True,objWritableMember,False,Nothing,False,Nothing,TriStateBool.FalseValue)

Dim ExGrpDict As New Dictionary(Of Guid,String)

For Each ExGrp As ExclusionGroup In BRApi.Security.Admin.GetExclusionGroups(si)

          ExGrpDict.Add(ExGrp.UniqueID,ExGrp.Name)

Next

If ExGrpDict.ContainsKey(BrApi.Finance.Members.ReadWritableMemberNoCache(siSource, dimTypeId.Entity,Mem.Member.Name).ReadDataGroupUniqueID) Then
	newRow("ReadDataGroup") =  ExGrpDict(BrApi.Finance.Members.ReadWritableMemberNoCache(siSource,dimTypeId.Entity,Mem.Member.Name).ReadDataGroupUniqueID)
Else 
	newRow("ReadDataGroup") =  BRApi.Security.Admin.GetGroupInfoEx(siSource,BrApi.Finance.Members.ReadWritableMemberNoCache(siSource, dimTypeId.Entity,Mem.Member.Name).ReadDataGroupUniqueID).GroupInfo.Group.Name
End If

I used another approach to achieve this as 
BRApi.Security.Admin.GetGroupInfoEx(siSource,BrApi.Finance.Members.ReadWritableMemberNoCache(siSource, dimTypeId.Entity,Mem.Member.Name).ReadDataGroupUniqueID).GroupInfo.Group.Name
as the line as not giving me the Exclusion group name and was throwing and Error: Object reference not set to an instance of an object.
