Try using Response.SetCookie(), because Response.Cookie.Add() can cause multiple cookies to be added, whereas SetCookie will update an existing cookie.

Better if you add logic to check if cookie already exists then Response.SetCookie else Response.Cookie.Add

Hi your code working fine for me, if you are using viewbag and any redirection occurred then your viewbag will be null, you can also use this Response.SetCookie(selleruserid);
