Thanks Nitin. Since, it is duration field with the same name and it is split in hours, minutes and seconds.

I just need to find way to extract values based on the ID. Any suggestions?

Hi,

ng-model is used for the two way binding means it bind the value on HTML and server side. So if you want to access the declared variable in HTML used ng-model and in client script you can access it by c.variable or $scope.variable name, where c is work as a controller in angularjs.
