<table class="tblData">
  <tr>
    <th>
      @Html.DisplayNameFor(model => model.First().SubmittedDate)
    </th>
    <th>
      @Html.DisplayNameFor(model => model.First().StartDate)
    </th>
  </tr>

  <tr>
    <td>
      @Html.DisplayFor(modelItem => item.SubmittedDate)
    </td>
    <td>
      @Html.DisplayFor(modelItem => item.StartDate)
    </td>
   </tr>
 </table>
 <input type="submit" value="submit" />
    }

Contoller code:

public void PostClick(FormCollection collection)

   /*Some Code */
} 

How to pass table value from view to controller?

Your need to generate controls that post back (input, textarea or select) and generate those controls in a for loop (or use a custom EditorTemplate for type Vendor)

View

@model List<Vendor>
@using (Html.BeginForm())
{
  <table class="tblData">
    <thead>
      ....
    </thead>
    <tbody>
      for(int i = 0; i < Model.Count; i++)
      {
        <tr>
          <td>@Html.TextBoxFor(m => m[i].SubmittedDate)</td>
          <td>@Html.TextBoxFor(m => m[i].StartDate)</td>
        </tr>
      }
    </tbody>
  </table>
  <input type="submit" value="submit" />
}

Post method

public void PostClick(List<Vendor> model)
{
  /*Some Code */
}
