    var value = form["CkbQuestion1"];

    return value;
}

I am receiving value of Checkbox as "true,false". I need the value of that control. How I can have that?

Any Idea please.

I expect you required the below code. Please replace your code with this.

[HttpPost]
public string ExtractEmailId(FormCollection form)
{
     var value = form["CkbQuestion1"];
     return value;
}

And you view will be similar to

@Using(Html.Beginform("ExtractEmailId"))
{
     <input type="checkbox" name="CkbQuestion1" />
      <input type="submit" value="Submit" />

}
