Database Size Increase After Index Rebuild.How to get back down?

I executed an Index Rebuild for a large table in database because it was 85% fragmented. After the Index Rebuild finished the database file size has grown from 19 GB to 27 GB.
Rebuild option:
(PAD_INDEX = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF, SORT_IN_TEMPDB = ON, ONLINE = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS = ON)
My Question : Is there any solution to decrease database file size without increase index fragmentation?
sql sql-server database database-administration

You can always try to shrink the datafile, but as you mention you could get fragmentation on that. I'd say, keep your datafiles the size they are, they are not so big and you will have some space to grow your DB.
thanks. but this method doesn't solve my problem because my database size is 1.5 TB.
