Try this

void Application_Start(object sender, EventArgs e)

{
Application["ActiveSessions"] = 0;

}

void Session_Start(object sender, EventArgs e)

{
try
{
Application.Lock();

    int activeSessions = (int) Application\["ActiveSessions"\] + 1;

    int allowedSessions = 10; // retrieve the threshold here instead


    Application\["ActiveSessions"\] = activeSessions;


    if (activeSessions > allowedSessions)

            System.Web.HttpContext.Current.Response.Redirect("~/UserLimitReached.aspx", false);

}
finally
{
    Application.UnLock();

}

}

void Session_End(object sender, EventArgs e)

{
Application.Lock();
Application["ActiveSessions"] = (int)Application["ActiveSessions"] - 1;

Application.UnLock();

}
