ASP.NET MVC dropdownlist viewbag stored procedures

I am unable to get value of id form dynamic dropdownlist using viewbag, I am using a stored procedure to insert the data. The value of id is coming from the dynamic dropdown.

In my view I am using

@Html.DropDownList("DepartmentID", new SelectList(ViewBag.data, "depId", "depId"), "Department-ID")

Whereas in my controller

public ActionResult Create()
{
    var Dictionary = db.departments.ToList();

    if (Dictionary != null) 
    {
         ViewBag.data = Dictionary;
    }

    return View();
}

[HttpPost, ActionName("Create")]
public ActionResult CreateThroughStoreProcedure(employee emp) 
{
    if (ModelState.IsValid)
    {
        db.ShowdDetails(emp.name, emp.city, emp.gender, emp.depId);
        db.SaveChanges();
        return RedirectToAction("Index");
    }

    return View("Error");
}

You've named your UI field DepartmentID:

@Html.DropDownList("DepartmentID", new SelectList(ViewBag.data, "depId", "depId"), "Department-ID")

But the property on your model is depId. Your field names need to match the property names of the model to which you're binding them:

@Html.DropDownList("depId", new SelectList(ViewBag.data, "depId", "depId"), "Department-ID")
