In order to accomplish your requirement follow below steps: Main logic is we need to add one more parameter define in ActionLink and getting value in controller action. In View : @Html.ActionLink(EDIT InsertRequest new { strRequestId = Model.GetAllRequests.Tables[0].Rows[i][RequestId].ToString()  Type=Edit }) @Html.ActionLink(DELETE InsertRequest new { strRequestId = Model.GetAllRequests.Tables[0].Rows[i][RequestId].ToString()  Type=Delete }) In controller : public ActionResult InsertRequest(RequestModel RM string strRequestId  string Type ) { if(strRequestId !=  || strRequestId != null) { if(Type !=  && Type == Edit ) { // Perform action }else if(Type !=  && Type == Delete ) { // Perform action } } }

You should modify the code (both markup and action method) like below: markup(cshtml): // we are using mode to differentiate the modes @Html.ActionLink(Insert InsertOrEditAction new { mode = insert }) @Html.ActionLink(Edit InsertOrEditAction new { mode = edit }) controller(cs) public ActionResult InsertOrEditAction(string mode) { string strViewName = ; if(mode == insert) { strViewName=InsertView; } else if(mode == edit) { strViewName=EditRecord; } return View(strViewName); } Hope this helps!
