I am trying to add data and list data into a single view using given models the data listing is working fine but while adding data no models is working.

I have two models AddStudent and ListStudent and I am using both of them in a view by merging into another model AddStudentList.

C#
public class AddStudent
{
    public int EnrollmentNo { get; set; }
    public string StudentName { get; set; }
}

public class ListStudent
{
    public int EnrollmentNo { get; set; }
    public string StudentName { get; set; }
}

public class AddStudentList
{
    public AddStudent addStudentData {get; set;}
    public List<ListStudent> listStudentData {get; set;}
}


The code in StudentController that i am using:

C#
AddStudent addstudent = new AddStudent();
AddStudentList asl = new AddStudentList();
addStudent = asl.AddStudentData;
TryUpdateModel(addStudent);


This is my view for these models:
HTML
@model AddStudentList

@{
    Layout = "~/Views/Shared/_Layout.cshtml";
}

<h1>Add Student</h1>
<hr>
<div class="row row-centered">
    <div class="col-md-4 col-md-offset-3">


        @using (Html.BeginForm("AddStudent", "Student", FormMethod.Post, new { enctype = "multipart/form-data" }))
        {
            <div class="form-group">
                @Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.AddStudentData.EnrollmentNo, new { @class = "form-control animated", placeholder = "Category Name", tabindex = 1 })
                @Html.ValidationMessageFor(m => m.AddStudentData.EnrollmentNo, null, new { @class = "error-class animated", @Style = "color:red;" })
            </div>
            <div class="form-group">
                @Html.DropDownListFor(m => m.AddStudentData.StudentName, new { @class = "form-control animated", tabindex = 2 })
                @Html.ValidationMessageFor(m => m.AddStudentData.StudentName, null, new { @class = "error-class animated", @Style = "color:red;" })
            </div>
            <div class="form-group">
                <div class="row">
                    <div class="col-sm-6 col-sm-offset-3">
                        <input type="submit" name="CategorySubmit" id="CategorySubmit" tabindex="6" class="form-control btn btn-login" value="Add Category">
                    </div>
                </div>
            </div>
        }
    </div>
</div>

    @{
        var grid = new WebGrid(Model.ListStudentData, canPage: true, rowsPerPage: 50);
    }
        @if (grid.Rows.Count > 0)
        {
            @grid.GetHtml(
                          htmlAttributes: new { @class = "table table-bordered table-responsive" },
                         columns:
                         grid.Columns(

                         grid.Column("EnrollmentNo", "Enrollment No."),

                         grid.Column("StudentName", "Student Name")))
}


What I have tried:

I have tried using individually child and parent model but still data is not passing from view to the required model.

Are you using ajax call to pass model and update?

No I am using simple razor form to pass data to the model.

Please check the answer provided below, if that helps, else post your issue back. :)

Try using the editor template for the model.
If possible please add the cshtml view code onto your question.

The problem is in controller to get data from the model and here is the code which I have used and it worked. I just use the parent model AddStudentList and pass the values to the database using AddStudentList.AddStudent and it worked fine.

Previous Code:
C#
AddStudent addstudent = new AddStudent();
AddStudentList asl = new AddStudentList();
addStudent = asl.AddStudentData;
TryUpdateModel(addStudent);


Replaced with this code:
C#
AddStudentList asl = new AddStudentList();
TryUpdateModel(asl);
