Hi Srinivas,
Hope the below method is useful. :)

public static bool IsValidFTPPath(string directory,string ftpUser, string ftpPassword)
{

try
{
try
{
FtpWebRequest requestDir = (FtpWebRequest)FtpWebRequest.Create(new Uri(directory));
requestDir.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.MakeDirectory;
requestDir.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(ftpUser, ftpPassword);
requestDir.UsePassive = true;
requestDir.UseBinary = true;
requestDir.KeepAlive = false;
FtpWebResponse response = (FtpWebResponse)requestDir.GetResponse();
Stream ftpStream = response.GetResponseStream();
ftpStream.Close();
response.Close();

}
catch (Exception)
{

}
try
{
FtpWebRequest reqFTP;
reqFTP = (FtpWebRequest)FtpWebRequest.Create(new Uri(directory));
reqFTP.Method = WebRequestMethods.Ftp.RemoveDirectory;
reqFTP.UseBinary = true;
reqFTP.Credentials = new NetworkCredential(ftpUser, ftpPassword);
FtpWebResponse responseRemDir = (FtpWebResponse)reqFTP.GetResponse();
Stream ftpStreamRemoveDir = responseRemDir.GetResponseStream();
ftpStreamRemoveDir.Close();
responseRemDir.Close();
}
catch (Exception)
{
throw;
}
return true;
}
catch (WebException ex)
{
FtpWebResponse response = (FtpWebResponse)ex.Response;
if (response.StatusCode == FtpStatusCode.ActionNotTakenFileUnavailable)
{
response.Close();
return true;
}
else
{
response.Close();
return false;
}
}
}
