Hi. Change your model like this [Required(ErrorMessage=Please select a product)] public string Area { get; set; } and your view like this @Html.RadioButtonFor(m => m.Area Area 1 new { id = Area1 }) Area 1 @Html.RadioButtonFor(m => m.Area Area 2 new { id = Area2 }) Area 2 @Html.RadioButtonFor(m => m.Area Area 3 new { id = Area3 }) Area 3 @Html.ValidationMessageFor(m => m.Area) otherwise you can add client side validation also. thanks.
