Today, this tutorial will show you how to create a DropDownList field for ASP.NET MVC 6 Razor view. First, you must create a new project and here is the code that I use:

Controller
using System;
using System.Collections.Generic;
using System.Linq;
using System.Web;
using System.Web.Mvc;
using MvcNew.Models;
namespace MvcNew.Controllers
{
    public class HomeController : Controller
    {
            public ActionResult DropDown()
        {
            List<SelectListItem> items = new List<SelectListItem>();
            items.Add(new SelectListItem { Text = "Developer", Value = "0" });
            items.Add(new SelectListItem { Text = "Analyst", Value = "1" });
            items.Add(new SelectListItem { Text = "Admin", Value = "2", Selected = true });
            items.Add(new SelectListItem { Text = "Manager", Value = "3" });
            ViewBag.Desig_Type = items;
            return View();     
        }
    }
}

View
@model MvcNew.Models.Home
@{
    ViewBag.Title = "Drop";
}
<h2>Drop</h2>
   @using (Html.BeginForm("Category", "Home", FormMethod.Get)) {
    <fieldset>
            Designation
            @Html.DropDownList("Desig_Type")
        <p>
            <input type="submit" value="Submit" />
        </p>
    </fieldset>
}
<div>
    @Html.ActionLink("Back to List", "Index")
</div>
@section Scripts {
    @Scripts.Render("~/bundles/jqueryval")
}
And here is the output from the above code:
