Setting Default time in MVC 5 time input field

Question

I would like to set default time to 12:00 AM on the input box, I have tried all sorts of stuff but its still displaying blank.

.cshtml

<div class="row">
    <div class="col-sm-6 mb-5">
        <div class="form-group">
            <label class="col-sm-3 col-form-label" label-for="Reminder">Time</label>
            <div class="col-sm-6">
                @Html.TextBoxFor(m => m.Reminder, new { @type = "time", @value = "12:00 AM", @class = "form-control", required = "", @placeholder = "12:00 AM" })
                @Html.ValidationMessageFor(m => m.Reminder, "", new { @class = "text-danger error-text" })
            </div>
        </div>
    </div>
</div>

value for input type time is 24 format so value should be 12:00 or 13:00 something like this without AM or PM .. you can take a look at developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/input/time — Mohamed-Yousef

@Mohamed-Yousef if I use the <input type="time"> as per the example its working but I want to use Html.TextBoxFor since I want to bind value from the model if value exists. — tmndungu

@YashSoni I have set the property's value on the model, on the developer tools I can see the default value but on the text box its still blank. — tmndungu

This works for me:

@Html.TextBoxFor(model => model.time, new { @Type = "time", @Value = "22:15:00" })

Try:

type -> Type

value -> Value
