Use this code:

  using (var conn = new SqlConnection(SomeConnectionString))
    using (var cmd = conn.CreateCommand())
    {
        conn.Open();
        cmd.CommandText = "SELECT RemainedCharge "
                                  + " FROM aspnet_Users "
                                  + " WHERE UserName = @UserName ";
        cmd.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@UserName", username);
        cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@id", index);
        using (var reader = cmd.ExecuteReader())
        {
            if (reader.Read())
            {
                learerLabel.Text = reader.GetString(reader.GetOrdinal("somecolumn"))
            }
        }

You are not assigning connection object sqlc to the SqlCommand.

Add this:

 cmd.Connection=sqlc;

Complete Solution:

sqlc = new SqlConnection(ConnectionString);
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand();
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text;
cmd.Connection=sqlc;
string username = HttpContext.Current.User.Identity.Name.ToString();

cmd.CommandText = @"SELECT RemainedCharge "
                          + " FROM aspnet_Users "
                          + " WHERE UserName = @UserName ";
cmd.Parameters.Add(new SqlParameter("@UserName", username));
//string RemainedCharge;
sqlc.Open();

 RemainedChargeLbl.Text =((int) cmd.ExecuteScalar()).ToString();

To read one value you don't need reader. Use SqlCommand.ExecuteScalar Method which executes query and returns first column of the first row in result set returned by query:

int value = (int)cmd.ExecuteScalcar();

BTW it's better to create command object with sqlc.CreateCommand() - it creates appropriate command and automatically assigns connection to it.
