I don't understand your markup. You have an iframe and then some hidden fields below the iframe (not in it). Where does the iframe come in all of this? What do you want read from where and sent to where?

Thanks for reply..
We are having a requirement to pass the hidden field values into the controller action.
Then based on the values we will do the operation.
if the hidden fields are inside the iframe then is there possiblity to pass the value. Please help me on this issue.

I'm afraid I still don't really understand what you're trying to do.

we will shared below url to client

http://localhost:61536/home/commonloginaetm

and my controller(home) action(commonloginaetm) should read the hidden field values from IFrame to the action(commonloginaetm).

You can't submit form elements in an iframe to your controller directly. You'll need to have hidden fields in the form that is submitted to the action, and use javascript to copy the field values from the document in the iframe into the hidden elements in your form before it is submitted. Or if you are using ajax to call your action then have the javascript that makes the ajax call read the values from the iframe. Google "access iframe document javascript" and you'll find samples on how to do that. Note that you'll only be able to do it if the page in the iframe is from the same site as the parent page.
