Do you mean how to store the session id in a hidden field?

hdnField.Value = Session.SessionID;

Pretty simple. Is that what you mean?

Basically i want to maintain unique session id and store the value if the session id already exist then new session id should be generate and store another data without disturbing previous session.

Session is something automatically handled by ASP.Net. You should not ever need to create a new session id.

If i want to generate multiple session ids what is the approach ?

You don't. A new session is generated each time a new user visits your site. You don't create the session id. ASP.Net manages it.

Perhaps you can explain more in depth what you are trying to do because it sounds like the session may not be what you think it is.

Think of the session as a user profile in windows. Each time a different person logs on, they get a new profile. Each time someone visits your site, they automatically are assigned a new session. You don't need to do any code to manage that.

I have a table with customer data.
If i click on search with account number that will fetch and maintain in session. next i want to open another account number data into another tab that should be fetch corresponding data and maintain into another tab without disturbing previous tab.
For this except session storage any other technique is there?
Main thing is individual tab should maintain individual users data.
Existing code is using session i want to avoid session and could you please provide another approach to maintain user data for individual tabs into same browser in mvc4.
We are ready to implement any type technique for this.

Why is it stored in Session? Are you displaying data in a grid? Session should be used for smaller objects so I don't know how much data you're pulling into the session, but if it's grids of data, I'd suggest not doing it.

From service the complete data has fetched and stored into session.
I am trying to append the guid to session id but i am not able to use guid every time it is creating new session id. My concern is i want to implement cookiless="true" functionality. There perfectly working my requirement.
Same thing i would like to implement
