if (fileName != null || fileName != String.Empty)
 {
   if (fileName == "NoImage")
   {
         fulpath = "~/img/Employee/NoImage.jpg";
   }
   else
    {
        fulpath = "~/img/Employee/" + MaxCount + "-" + year + ext;
        file.SaveAs(Request.MapPath(fulpath));
    }
   }

A file may have many names, which one do you want?

We can't be sure, but the most likely thing is that the filename you are comparing against either contains path info, a file type extension, or both - so it fails your test.
But we can't tell, because we can't run your code with your data.

So, it's going to be up to you.
Fortunately, you have a tool available to you which will help you find out what is going on: the debugger. If you don't know how to use it then a quick Google for "Visual Studio debugger" should give you the info you need.

Put a breakpoint on the first line in the function, and run your code through the debugger. Then look at your code, and at your data and work out what should happen manually. Then single step each line checking that what you expected to happen is exactly what did. When it isn't, that's when you have a problem, and you can back-track (or run it again and look more closely) to find out why.

Sorry, but we can't do that for you - time for you to learn a new (and very, very useful) skill: debugging!

Take a look here: Uploading Files In ASP.NET MVC Using HttpPostedFileBase[^]

I think you neeed something like that:

if (fileName != null)
    fulpath = "~/img/Employee/" + MaxCount + "-" + year + ext;
else
    fulpath = "~/img/Employee/NoImage.jpg";

file.SaveAs(Request.MapPath(fulpath));
