You wont get an Id in before insert trigger. Try after insert trigger on account + update co will fail as you are creating a new contact, so it should be insert co.

Hi Pradeep,

You are performing an udpate statement on Contact List co. therefore you need to define Id/external id in this update call.
What actually you are trying to accomplish here? are you trying to create new contact for the newly inserted Account. If yes, then change the update statement at the end to insert.
i.e.
insert co;

Cheers!
