echo Yii::app()->controller->getId;
echo Yii:app()->getController->id;
echo Yii:app()->controller->uniqueID;

Solution
<?php echo $this->getUniqueId();?>
this will show current controller
OTHER TIPS
Like this
Yii::app()->controller->id
or
Yii::app()->getController()->getId()
http://www.yiiframework.com/doc/api/1.1/CApplication#getController-detail
Controller Id :
$this->id
Here $this refers to controller.
And For getting action id :
$this->action->id
You're not actually required to use the static function. Whenever in a view( or template) you can use echo $this->getUniqueId();
to get the unique controller ID.
