Hi Chanbasha,

Below is the sample code which creates an account and also a contact for that particular account so that it will be shown in the related list.If you want to create a contact for an existing account, then you need to query for account name and insert the contact.

Visualforce Page
  
<apex:page standardController="Contact" extensions="exampleClass1">

   <apex:form >
    <apex:pageBlock >
    <apex:pageBlockSection >
     <apex:inputField value="{!Contact.FirstName}"/>
     <apex:inputField value="{!Contact.LastName}"/>
     </apex:pageBlockSection>
<apex:pageBlockButtons location="bottom">
     <apex:commandButton action="{!save}" value="Save"/>
     </apex:pageBlockButtons>
    </apex:pageBlock>

   </apex:form>

</apex:page>

Controller
  
public with sharing class exampleClass1 {

    Contact newCon;

    public exampleClass1(ApexPages.StandardController con) {
          this.newCon = (Contact)con.getRecord();

   

    }
    public pagereference save(){
      Account a = New Account(Name = newCon.FirstName + ' ' + newCon.LastName);
      Insert a;
      newCon.AccountID = a.id;
      insert newCon;

      Pagereference pr = New PageReference('/' + a.id);
      return pr;
   }


}

Hope this helps you!

If this helps you please mark it as solved.

Thanks and Regards
Sandhya

Hi Sandhya,

   Thanks for replying
 I don't need the new account creation, In account related list in contacts section i add a button called"Add Multiple Contacts" by clicking the button it will be redirected to a visualforce page we are  developed for entering the contact details.and then by clicking the save button it will be redirected to a account details page.Thats it.

Thanks,
Basha
