You can use directly Session objects like below:

Session["TempSessionObj"] = "testVal";

To retrieve session data like:

var tempObjFromSession = Session["TempSessionObj"] as string;

if you want to use get data in class file then use like:

System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Session["TempSessionObj"] = sessionValue;

If your value is limited to one or two page specific then you can use TempData, ViewBag, ViewData. Please follow below link:

Create a session variable is straight forward in Controller class. You should use the built in "Session" variable for this purpose like
Session["yoursessionvarname"] = yourobjectname;
During retrieval you should type cast it:
List lst = (List) yourobjectname;
Instead of session you can also consider to use various session variable like flavours in ASP.Net MVC like Tempdata, ViewBag and ViewData. You can find difference between these in the below blog post:

var products=Db.GetProducts(); 
 
Session["products"]=products; 
 
var products=Session["products"] as List;  
 
Session["products"]=null;
