I am getting value FromDate from database and I am sending the data to my View using a ViewModel. In the View, I want to display the date (08/27/2018), but without the time value.

I am doing that in the following way: 

@Model.FromDate

I have tried out the following different ways to get only the time value to show on the View: 

@Model.FromDate.Value()

@Model.FromFate.GetValueOrDefault()

I even used a custom DateTime format. But I still get the complete DateTime value in the output. How can I get only the date and not the time in the output?

You can format a DateTime using ToString():

@Model.FromDate.ToString("MM/dd/yyyy")

These are the patterns:

0   MM/dd/yyyy  08/22/2006
1   dddd, dd MMMM yyyy  Tuesday, 22 August 2006
2   dddd, dd MMMM yyyy  HH:mm Tuesday, 22 August 2006 06:30
3   dddd, dd MMMM yyyy  hh:mm tt Tuesday, 22 August 2006 06:30 AM
4   dddd, dd MMMM yyyy  H:mm Tuesday, 22 August 2006 6:30
5   dddd, dd MMMM yyyy  h:mm tt Tuesday, 22 August 2006 6:30 AM
6   dddd, dd MMMM yyyy HH:mm:ss Tuesday, 22 August 2006 06:30:07
7   MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm    08/22/2006 06:30
8   MM/dd/yyyy hh:mm tt 08/22/2006 06:30 AM
9   MM/dd/yyyy H:mm 08/22/2006 6:30
10  MM/dd/yyyy h:mm tt  08/22/2006 6:30 AM
10  MM/dd/yyyy h:mm tt  08/22/2006 6:30 AM
10  MM/dd/yyyy h:mm tt  08/22/2006 6:30 AM
11  MM/dd/yyyy HH:mm:ss 08/22/2006 06:30:07
12  MMMM dd August 22
13  MMMM dd August 22
14  yyyy'-'MM'-'dd'T'HH':'mm':'ss.fffffffK  2006-08-22T06:30:07.7199222-04:00
15  yyyy'-'MM'-'dd'T'HH':'mm':'ss.fffffffK  2006-08-22T06:30:07.7199222-04:00
16  ddd, dd MMM yyyy HH':'mm':'ss 'GMT' Tue, 22 Aug 2006 06:30:07 GMT
17  ddd, dd MMM yyyy HH':'mm':'ss 'GMT' Tue, 22 Aug 2006 06:30:07 GMT
18  yyyy'-'MM'-'dd'T'HH':'mm':'ss   2006-08-22T06:30:07
19  HH:mm   06:30
20  hh:mm tt    06:30 AM
21  H:mm    6:30
22  h:mm tt 6:30 AM
23  HH:mm:ss    06:30:07
24  yyyy'-'MM'-'dd HH':'mm':'ss'Z'  2006-08-22 06:30:07Z
25  dddd, dd MMMM yyyy HH:mm:ss Tuesday, 22 August 2006 06:30:07
26  yyyy MMMM   2006 August
27  yyyy MMMM   2006 August

If your using TextBoxFor you can use the following to show only the date - 

@Html.TextBoxFor(model => model.Date, "{0:MM/dd/yyyy}")

I think you can use String.Format for this. For example:

@String.Format({"0:dd/MM/yyyy"}, @Model.FromDate);

Hope to help, my friend!
