I tried all suggested ways from this question answers and other articles in the web but not working anyway. I tried autocomplete="new-random-value", autocomplete="off" in form element, using client-side script as below but outside of $(document).ready() as one of the user mentioned:

$(':input').on('focus', function () {
  $(this).attr('autocomplete', 'off')
});

I found maybe another priority in the browser cause this weird behavior! So I searched more and finally, I read again carefully below lines from this good article:

For this reason, many modern browsers do not support autocomplete="off" for login fields:

If a site sets autocomplete="off" for a , and the form includes username and password input fields, then the browser will still offer to remember this login, and if the user agrees, the browser will autofill those fields the next time the user visits the page. If a site sets autocomplete="off" for username and password fields, then the browser will still offer to remember this login, and if the user agrees, the browser will autofill those fields the next time the user visits the page. This is the behavior in Firefox (since version 38), Google Chrome (since 34), and Internet Explorer (since version 11).

If you are defining a user management page where a user can specify a new password for another person, and therefore you want to prevent auto-filling of password fields, you can use autocomplete="new-password"; however, support for this value has not been implemented on Firefox.

It's just worked. I tried in chrome specially and I hope this continues working and help others.
