Abstract
Corporate Social Responsibility has gained vital attention in the modern corporate settings. In this phenomena, Triple Bottom Line is concerned as a vigorous component when it comes to the corporate practice aligned with CSR. But in most cases, CSR is practiced deviating from its original idea. Thus, this research is carried out with the purpose of finding how far the triple bottom line is practiced within the context of corporate Social Responsibility with special reference to listed companies in CSE Sri Lanka. This research is basically considered as a deductive research and thereby it becomes an explanatory type research. Data were gathered using a structured questionnaire with 32 questions. Fifty listed companies were selected under main four industry categories, namely banking, energy, retailing, food beverage and tobacco. Four hypotheses were formed and tested using correlation and all the hypotheses were accepted.
