@manudhiman6: Its the behaviour of the control to adopt max length, you have to adjust width via CSS. You can use the css, style="width: 150px;" , this will keep your control's width consistent.

Already tried this... Before using style it expends on right side.. after using style it expands on left side.

<asp:DropDownList ID="ls_grp" Width="115px" runat="server" Style="margin-left:30px; width:115px;">
