i have not tried it but i am almost certain that call to ToArray method in loop is keeping the system from generating proper names for nested inputs. There are couple of things you can do to remedy this First, in your view model change

public IEnumerable BandAvailabilities { get; set; }

to

public IList BandAvailabilities { get; set; }  //or Array

so you don't have to call ToArray method in the loop and proper names are generated for inputs. Second, make an editor template and put it in Editor templates folder either under the current controller or in shared folder's Editor template folder. Make this view accept model of type BandAvailabilityInfo and name of this view should also be BandAvailabilityInfo. then in your main view you only have to replace entire loop with

 <%: Html.EditorFor(m => m.ResponseInfo.SubsetInfo.BandAvailabilities%>

and rest will be handled by framework itself
