Hi,

Request.UrlReferrer can only be used with hyperlinks or anchor tags, not with button redirects or Response.Redirect.

with Response.Redirect the object returns null.

refer these.
Is there any alternative for UrlReferrer and HTTP_REFERRER[^]
ASP.NET - Response.Redirect Not Populating Url Referrer[^]

hope it helps.

For solving this kind of situation you have to user Server.Transfer("NextPageName"); instead of Responce.Redirect(""); So, when you go from one page to another you will be see that previous page in your URL.

I hope it's working well and helping to you........:-)
