@Html.DropDownListFor(m => m.Trns[i].Executive2Id, (IEnumerable<SelectListItem>)ViewBag.Executive2Id)


Model:

public class FDCollectionVM
  {
      public List<TermDeposits> FDs { get; set; } // for Prepare UI
      public List<Trn_TermDeposits> Trns { get; set; }

      [Display(Name = "Date")]
      public DateTime TrnDate { get; set; }

      public int TrnTypesId { get; set; }

I think i have to do it with ViewModel only and not to use the ViewBag for populating DropDownlist, bcz the selected value will be pass through ViewModel only and i am unable to loop through it using the ViewBag.
