In the MVC projects we pass the action to the view and passing the model object if necessary into the view.

Then we have scenarios where we dont want to return anything or we want to redirect from one action to the another view which the action is not meant for.

So in that case we will use the method that will redirect the controller to view which we have mentioned.

RedirectToAction is that method which will do it from the controller action into the view.

  [HttpPost]
        public ActionResult SaveDetails(EmployeeModel EmpMod)
        {
            EmpRep = new EmployeeRepository();
            EmpMod = EmpRep.SaveDetails(EmpMod);
            return RedirectToAction("Index");
        }

This will redirect the action to the Index view which is used to display the detail of the employee.
