                    {
                        bool userphone = entities.UserDetails.Any(u => u.UserContactNumber.Equals(ContactNumber));
                        bool userpass = entities.UserDetails.Any(u => u.UserPassword.Equals(Upass));
                        if (ModelState.IsValid && userphone && userpass)
                        {
                           var user = entities.UserDetails.FirstOrDefault(u => u.UserContactNumber.Equals(ContactNumber));
                            if (user != null)
                                return Request.CreateResponse(HttpStatusCode.OK, user, new System.Net.Http.Headers.MediaTypeHeaderValue("application/json"));
                            else
                                return Request.CreateResponse(HttpStatusCode.BadRequest, "Either Contact Number or password is not correct", new System.Net.Http.Headers.MediaTypeHeaderValue("application/json"));

                        }
                        else

You use the same name for both action methods with the same http verb. You cannot overload action methods. See here and here. Semantically you should use POST http method for changing state (for example logging user) and it will work.

[HttpPost]
public HttpResponseMessage Login(String ContactNumber, String Password)

But when I am doing [HttpPost] It goes to some some post function. – akjjain91 Jul 03 '17 at 19:08
public HttpResponseMessage Register([FromBody] UserDetail User) { //code} – akjjain91 Jul 03 '17 at 19:09
Yes, and Post method is appropriate verb in this case. – Ivan R. Jul 03 '17 at 19:55
I am not getting your solution Please explain – akjjain91 Jul 04 '17 at 03:43
