By default, on focusing the MaskedTextBox, alphanumeric keypad will be displayed on mobile devices. Sometimes only numeric keypad for number values is needed, and this can be achieved by setting “type” property to tel.
Refer to the following example to enable numeric keypad in MaskedTextBox.

CSHTML

@Html.EJS().MaskedTextBox("mask1").Mask("000-000-0000").Created("onCreate").Render()

<script>
    function onCreate() {
        var key = document.getElementById("mask1");
        key.type = "tel";
    }
</script>

NumericKeypad.cs

public ActionResult numericKeypad()
{
    return View();
}
