Answer 1

You can try:

var listWithoutCol = List.Select(x => new { x.Name , x.Exp}).ToList();

that will return a List with only the information of the fields Name and Exp...

Answer 2

If you want the new list to have a concrete type objects instead of anonymous objects, you can define yourself a corresponding class without IDs:

public class EmployeeDetailsDTO
{
    public string Name { get; set; }
    public string Exp { get; set; }
}

and use Select as:

var listWithoutIDs = List.Select(x => new EmployeeDetailsDTO{ Name = x.Name , Exp = x.Exp}).ToList();
