Actually I have to develop a utility which will be a console application in c# .net which will return the zip code based on the address(city,state,country) entered and updates the zip code to the user. Can I do it with the Google service? Please Help..!

One quick note - Console applications and ASP.NET are two different technologies. It isn't a big deal in this instance since that isn't the focus, but it helps with clarity if you correctly specify the type of application you are building.

This is backwards of how lookups usually work. Usually you input the zip code and that verifies the city and state since the zip code is more specific than the city (one city can have multiple zip codes). However, there seems to be a way to do this with Yahoo. Here is a Stack Overflow question with some good information on how to do so:
