-Create a template in Views/Shared/EditorTemplates for each control (textbox template below).
@model object
@Html.TextBoxFor(m=>m);
-Pass the template name into the Html.EditorFor helper method.
@Html.EditorFor(Function(x)=>x.Password,"templateName");

I am having another question too...Instead of control name, if i use control_id, then how to generate control dynamically based on this control_id stored in table. My Scenario is, user will have the option to select control type for their fieldname which is unknown others. After selecting control type( textbox,radiolist, etc...), corresponding control_id will be stored in table. Now based on the control_id stored in table, have to generate control dynamically...I am completely new to mvc. Can you please guide me in right direction to implement it?

I am guessing you are trying to allow the user to define there own tables and now you want them to be able to add data? What is the use case?
