I Have this in a view in an area 

<form action='@Url.Action("/DeleteCoverage")'></form>

but this gives only the following html

<form action=''></form>

but the following code

@using (Html.BeginForm("DeleteCoverage", "Coverage", new { area = "Coverage" },      FormMethod.Post, new { id = "delform" }))

gives html

 <form action="/Coverage/DeleteCoverage/af361feb-1818-430b-803c-e332a162b0e2" id="delform" method="post">

I get this HTML only if i add a route for this method. Other wise it just becomes action=""

Why i am not getting proper HTML if I don’t add route?

    You are incorrectly using the Url.Action helper. This helper has several overloads and expects you to pass action, controller, route values, … Currently you are passing /DeleteCoverage which is invalid action name (action names cannot start with /).

    So pick one of the overloads and use it correctly:

    <form action="@Url.Action("DeleteCoverage", "Coverage", new { area = "Coverage" })"></form>

    Oh and by the way you should probably use Html.BeginForm to generate your form tags instead of hardcoding them.
