Model :
List<SelectListItem> ListItem = new List<SelectListItem>();

ListItem = from itm in tabledata
select new SelectList
{
Value = itm.Value,
Text = itm.Name
}).ToList();

OR

ListItem.Add(new SelectListItem { Value = "true", Text = "Yes" });
ListItem.Add(new SelectListItem { Value = "false", Text = "No" });

@html.DropDownListFor(m=>m.Item, ListItem,new{});
