I am trying to integrate PayPal in my application (MVC4 C#)

Any link/ guidance in integrating it (step by step explanation) will be really helpful.

Issue is Even though my action link is "https://www.sandbox.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr"

it redirects to "www.sandbox.paypal/home"

If you don't append this ?cmd=_express-checkout&token= with the token then you will be redirected to the home page and not the PayPal Checkout page. The token is gotten from a successful setExpressCheckout request.

The payflow for ExpressCheckout is:

  1. SetExpressCheckout request
  2. Redirect to PayPal for user authorisation
  3. Return to your site
  4. GetExpressCheckoutDetails request
  5. doExpressCheckoutPayment request

Here's a little diagram of the payflow for it:
