    Hi @akhter hussain ,

    You can get CodeItem through the jQuery Onchange event, and then obtain Secid according to Linq query.

    public JsonResult GetSections(int itemId)
        {       
           int Secid = DB.ItemMasterFiles.First(a => a.CodeItem == itemId).SecID;
           var STATUS_LIST = (from s in DB.Sections
                               where s.SecID ==Secid
                               select new SelectListItem()
                               {
                                   Text = s.SecName,
                                   Value = s.SecID.ToString(),
                               }).ToList();
            return Json(STATUS_LIST, JsonRequestBehavior.AllowGet);
        }

    I wrote a demonstration, you can refer to:

    @model MVC418.Models.CascadingModel

    ViewBag.Title = "Home Page";
}

                                </div>

    Hello Akhter,

    You should use JQuery Onchange event on the #itemMasterFile field then fetch the related categories using an AJAX request. You can do it like below:

    I assume your dropdown is like this: 

    <select asp-for="itemMasterFile" asp-items="ViewBag.itemMasterFiles"> 
</select>

<select asp-for="Sections" >
</select>

    In the view or in a separate javascript file use:

    //Subscribe to jQuery change event - called when the value in itemmasterfile dropdown changes
$("#itemMasterFile").change(function () 
{
    var selectedItem = $(this).val();    
    getRelatedData(selectedItem);
});


//function to make the ajax call
function getRelatedData(itemid) 
{
    $.ajax({
        url: '/ControllerName/ActionName',
        type: 'GET',
        data: {selectedid : itemid },
        dataType: 'json',
        success: function (data) {
            var options = '<option value="0">--Select Sections--   </option>';
//loop through each collection of sections
            $.each(data, function () {
                options += '<option value="' + this.id + '">' +
                    this.name + '</option>';
            });
//append the select options to the Sections select box
            $("#Sections").html(options);          
        },
        error: function (xhr, status, error) {            
            alert(xhr.responseText);

        },
        failure: function (xhr, status, error) {           
            alert(xhr.responseText);

        }
    });
}

    In your controller make sure you have a method to return Sections by selectedId.
