If you are using Visual Studio 2015, then I would recommend you to jump over to ASP.NET MVC 5 instead. Here's a getting started article for that: ASP.NET MVC 5: Building Your First Web Application - Part 1[^]

ASP.NET MVC 5 should be available when you select .NET Framework 4.5 or higher in your Visual Studio 2015.

If you can't find that template then you can either:

(a) add the MVC 5 as nuget package so it will be added to your project: NuGet Gallery | Microsoft.AspNet.Mvc 5.2.6[^]
(b) download and install the 2015 web framework and tools: Microsoft ASP.NET Web Frameworks and Tools 2015 - Visual Studio Marketplace[^]

please suggest which version of VS 2015/Vs 2017 is best for MVC 5.

Well if you have VS2017 then that's surely your best choice to take advantage of the new features the tool has offered. Otherwise, VS2015 is fine.
