S&P 500 Index Fund

The Fund

LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN

Dear Shareholder:

This semiannual report for Dreyfus S&P 500 Index Fund covers the six-month period from November 1, 2003, through April 30, 2004 Inside, you’ll find valuable information about how the fund was managed during the reporting period, including a discussion with the fund’s portfolio manager,Tom Durante.

Positive economic data continued to accumulate during the reporting period, as consumers, flush with extra cash from federal tax refunds and mortgage refinancings, continued to spend. At the same time, recent evidence of stronger job growth supports the view that corporations have become more willing to spend and invest. One result of the economic rebound has been higher overall earnings and stock prices for many U.S. companies.

Although recent economic news generally has been encouraging, we continue to believe that investors should be aware of the potential risks that could lead to heightened volatility or a stock market correction Chief among them, in our view, are a possible acceleration of inflation and the chance that terrorism could cause instability in global markets As always, we encourage you to speak regularly with your financial advisor, who may be in the best position to suggest ways to position your portfolio for the opportunities and challenges of today’s financial markets.

Thank you for your continued confidence and support.

Sincerely,

Stephen E. Canter

Chairman and Chief Executive Officer

The Dreyfus Corporation

DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

Tom Durante, Portfolio Manager

How did Dreyfus S&P 500 Index Fund perform relative to its benchmark?

For the six-month period ended April 30, 2004, the fund produced a total return of 6.02%.¹ The Standard & Poor’s 500 Composite Stock Price Index (the “S&P 500 Index”), the fund’s benchmark, produced a 6.27% return for the same period.^2,3

We attribute the fund and market’s performance to heightened marke volatility, in which gains achieved during the first half of the reportin period were later offset by market weakness stemming from terrorism related concerns and the possibility of higher interest rates in a stronge economy.The difference in returns between the fund and S&P 500 Inde was primarily the result of transaction costs and other operating expense

What is the fund’s investment approach?

The fund seeks to match the total return of the S&P 500 Index. To pursue this goal, the fund generally invests in all 500 stocks in the S&P 500 Index in proportion to their weighting in the S&P 500 Index. Often considered a barometer for the stock market in general, the S&P 500 Index is made up of 500 widely held common stocks across 10 economic sectors.The S&P 500 Index is dominated by large-cap, blue-chip stocks that comprise nearly 75% of total U.S. market capitalization.

However, it is important to note that the S&P 500 Index is not composed of the 500 largest companies; rather, it is designed to reflect the industries of the U.S. economy. Each stock is weighted by its market capitalization; that is, larger companies have greater representation in the S&P 500 Index than smaller ones. The fund may also use stock index futures as a substitute for the sale or purchase of stocks.

As an index fund, the fund uses a passive management approach; all investment decisions are made based on the composition of the S&P 500 Index.The fund does not attempt to manage market volatility.

DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE (continued)

What other factors influenced the fund’s performance?

When the reporting period began, investors already had become more optimistic about the prospects for stronger economic growth in the United States, chiefly because interest rates remained at generational lows, corporations had begun to invest in new capital projects and lower federal income tax rates enacted in the spring of 2003 supported consumer spending. In this economic environment, investors began to feel more comfortable with investment risks, and stocks in traditional growth areas, such as technology, produced solid gains. Indeed, gains continued to be concentrated among smaller, more speculative stocks during the reporting period as investors turned to shares that had been severely beaten down during the previous bear market.

By early 2004, as the economic recovery progressed, investors began to turn their attention to larger, higher-quality stocks that historically have demonstrated an ability to generate relatively consistent earnings growth in a variety of economic climates. This shift in investor sentiment generally benefited the larger-cap companies that compose the S&P 500 Index. However, most stocks weakened in March, when terrorist attacks in Madrid sparked renewed security concerns, and April, when a stronger than expected labor market increased the perceived likelihood of higher interest rates in 2004.

Over the full reporting period, the market’s strongest returns stemmed from large pharmaceutical stocks, many of which profited from the development and launch of new drugs as well as increased merger-and-acquisition activity in the health care sector. A weakening U.S. dollar relative to most major foreign currencies also helped support their profits because most large, U.S. drug manufacturers have a significant presence in overseas markets.

Energy stocks performed relatively well during the reporting period, as higher commodity prices, limited refinery capacity and rising global demand helped drive gains. In the consumer staples area, food and

4

beverage stocks posted above-average gains, especially during the second half of the reporting period, when value stocks tended to perform better than growth stocks. Many of the larger food and beverage companies also benefited from stronger overseas sales and currency gains.

On the other hand, semiconductor stocks generally produced disappointing results. Although the semiconductor group represented one of the market’s better-performing areas earlier in 2003, an increase in spending to meet rising demand recently eroded their profit margins. In the consumer discretionary area, home retailers, such as Lowe’s and Home Depot, produced lackluster returns because of the effects of higher gasoline prices on shipping costs as well as higher prices for lumber, copper and steel during the reporting period.

What is the fund’s current strategy?

As an index fund, our strategy is to attempt to replicate the returns of the S&P 500 Index.Accordingly, as of the end of the reporting period, the percentage of the fund’s assets invested in each market sector closely approximated its representation in the S&P 500 Index.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

NOTE 1—Significant Accounting Policies:

Dreyfus S&P 500 Index Fund (the “fund”) is a separate non-diversified series of Dreyfus Index Funds, Inc. (the “Company”) which is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”), as an open-end management investment company and operates as a series company currently offering three series including the fund.The fund’s investment objective is to match the performance of the Standard & Poor’s 500 Composite Stock Price Index.The Dreyfus Corporation (“the Manager” or “Dreyfus”) serves as the fund’s investment adviser. The Manager is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mellon Financial Corporation (“Mellon Financial”). Dreyfus Service Corporation (the “Distributor”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Manager, is the distributor of the fund’s shares, which are sold to the public without a sales charge.

The fund’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, which may require the use of management estimates and assumptions. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnifications. The fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown.The fund does not anticipate recognizing any loss related to these arrangements.

(a) Portfolio valuation: Investments in securities (including financial futures) are valued at the last sales price on the securities exchange or national securities market on which such securities are primarily traded. Securities listed on the National Market System for which market quotations are available are valued at the official closing price or, if there is no official closing price that day, at the last sale price. Securities not listed on an exchange or the national securities market, or securities for which there were no transactions, are valued at the average of the most recent bid and asked prices. Bid price is used when no asked price is available.When market quotations or official closing

The Fund

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)

prices are not readily available, or are determined not to reflect accurately fair value, such as when the value of a security has been significantly affected by events after the close of the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded (for example, a foreign exchange or market), but before the fund calculates its net asset value, the fund may value these investments at fair value as determined in accordance with the procedures approved by the fund’s Board. Fair valuing of securities may be determined with the assistance of a pricing service using calculations based on indices of domestic securities and other appropriate indicators, such as prices of relevant ADR’s and futures contracts.

(b) Securities transactions and investment income: Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gain and loss from securities transactions are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date and interest income, including, where applicable, amortization of discount and premium on investments, is recognized on the accrual basis.

The fund may lend securities to qualified institutions. At origination, all loans are secured by collateral of at least 102% of the value of U.S. securities loaned and 105% of the value of foreign securities loaned. Collateral equivalent to at least 100% of the market value of securities on loan will be maintained at all times. Cash collateral is invested in certain money market mutual funds managed by the Manager as shown in the fund’s Statement of Investments.The fund will be entitled to receive all income on securities loaned, in addition to income earned as a result of the lending transaction. Although each security loaned is fully collateralized, the fund would bear the risk of delay in recovery of, or loss of rights in, the securities loaned should a borrower fail to return the securities in a timely manner.

(c) Affiliated issuers: Issuers in which the fund held investments in other investment companies advised by the Manager are defined as “affiliated” in the Act.

(d) Repurchase agreements: The fund may engage in repurchase agreement transactions. Under the terms of a typical repurchase agree-

28

ment, the fund, through its custodian and sub-custodian, takes possession of an underlying debt obligation subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase, and the fund to resell, the obligation at an agreed-upon price and time, thereby determining the yield during the fund’s holding period.This arrangement results in a fixed rate of return that is not subject to market fluctuations during the fund’s holding period. The value of the collateral is at least equal, at all times, to the total amount of the repurchase obligation, including interest. In the event of a counter party default, the fund has the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred.There is potential loss to the fund in the event the fund is delayed or prevented from exercising its rights to dispose of the collateral securities, including the risk of a possible decline in the value of the underlying securities during the period while the fund seeks to assert its rights.The Manager, acting under the supervision of the Board of Directors, reviews the value of the collateral and the cred-itworthiness of those banks and dealers with which the fund enters into repurchase agreements to evaluate potential risks.

(e) Dividends to shareholders: Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends from investment income-net and dividends from net realized capital gain, if any, are normally declared and paid annually, but the fund may make distributions on a more frequent basis to comply with the distribution requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).To the extent that net realized capital gain, if any, can be offset by capital loss carryovers, it is the policy of the fund not to distribute such gain. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with incomes tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

(f) Federal income taxes: It is the policy of the fund to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company, if such qualification is in the best interests of its shareholders, by complying with the applicable provisions of the Code, and to make distributions of taxable income sufficient to relieve it from substantially all federal income and excise taxes.

The Fund

29

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)

The fund has an unused capital loss carryover of $147,007,234 available for federal income tax purposes to be applied against future net securities profits, if any, realized subsequent to October 31, 2003. If not applied, $20,622,195 of the carryover expires in fiscal 2008, $42,517,790 expires in fiscal 2009, $82,176,122 expires in fiscal 2010 and $1,691,127 expires in fiscal 2011.

The tax character of distributions paid to shareholders during the fiscal year ended October 31, 2003, was as follows: ordinary income $26,194,132. The tax character of current year distributions will be determined at the end of the current fiscal year.

NOTE 2—Bank Line of Credit:

The fund participates with other Dreyfus-managed funds in a $350 million redemption credit facility (the “Facility”) to be utilized for temporary or emergency purposes, including the financing of redemptions. In connection therewith, the fund has agreed to pay commitment fees on its pro rata portion of the Facility. Interest is charged to the fund based on prevailing market rates in effect at the time of borrowings. During the period ended April 30, 2004, the fund did not borrow under the Facility.

NOTE 3—Management Fee and Other Transactions With Affiliates:

(a) Pursuant to an Investment Management Agreement (“Agreement”) with the Manager, the management fee is computed at the annual rate of .25 of 1% of the value of the fund’s average daily net assets, and is payable monthly. Under the terms of the Agreement, the Manager has agreed to pay all the expenses of the fund, except management fees, brokerage commissions, taxes, interest, commitment fees, Shareholder Services Plan fees, fees and expenses of non-interested Board members (including counsel fees) and extraordinary expenses. In addition, the Manager is required to reduce its fees in an amount equal to the fund’s allocable portion of fees and expenses of the non-interested Board members (including counsel fees). Each Board member also serves as a Board member of other funds within the Dreyfus

30

complex (collectively, the “Fund Group”). Each Board member receives an annual fee of $25,000, an attendance fee of $4,000 for each in-person meeting and $500 for telephone meetings.The chairman of the Board receives an additional 25% of such compensation (with the exception of reimburseable amounts). Subject to the Company’s Emeritus Program Guidelines, Emeritus Board Members, if any, receive 50% of the annual retainer fee and per meeting fee paid at the time the Board member achieves emeritus status. All Board fees are allocated among the funds in the Fund Group in proportion to each fund’s relative net assets.Amounts required to be paid by the Company directly to the non-interested Board members, that were applied to offset a portion of the management fee payable to the Manager, were in fact paid directly by the Manager to the non-interested Board members. All Board fees are allocated among the funds in the Fund Group in proportion to each fund’s relative net assets.This amount for the period ended April 30, 2004 was $30,019.

The components of Due to The Dreyfus Corporation and affiliates in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities consists of: management fees $632,154 and shareholder services plan fees $632,154.

(b) Under the Shareholder Services Plan, the fund pays the Distributor for the provision of certain services a fee, at the annual rate of .25 of 1% of the value of the fund’s average daily net assets.The services provided may include personal services relating to shareholder accounts, such as answering shareholder inquiries regarding the fund and providing reports and other information, and services related to the maintenance of shareholder accounts.The Distributor may make payments to Service Agents (a securities dealer, financial institution or other industry professional) in respect of these services. The Distributor determines the amounts to be paid to Service Agents. During the period April 30, 2004, the fund was charged $3,725,704 pursuant to the Shareholder Services Plan.

(c) A 1% redemption fee is charged and retained by the fund on shares redeemed within six months following the date of issuance, including

The Fund

31

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)

redemptions made through the use of the fund’s exchange privilege. During the period ended April 30, 2004, redemption fees amounted to $39,889.

NOTE 4—Securities Transactions:

The aggregate amount of purchases and sales of investment securities, excluding short-term securities and financial futures during the period ended April 30, 2004, amounted to $122,460,365 and $19,748,545, respectively.

The fund may invest in financial futures contracts in order to gain exposure to or protect against changes in the market. The fund is exposed to market risk as a result of changes in the value of the underlying financial instruments. Investments in financial futures require the fund to “mark to market” on a daily basis, which reflects the change in the market value of the contract at the close of each day’s trading. Accordingly, variation margin payments are received or made to reflect daily unrealized gains or losses.When the contracts are closed, the fund recognizes a realized gain or loss.These investments require initial margin deposits with a broker, which consist of cash or cash equivalents. The amount of these deposits is determined by the exchange or Board of Trade on which the contract is traded and is subject to change. Contracts open as of April 30, 2004, are set forth in the Statement of Financial Futures.

At April 30, 2004, accumulated net unrealized appreciation on investments was $650,716,335, consisting of $907,126,074 gross unrealized appreciation and $256,409,739 gross unrealized depreciation.

32

At April 30, 2004, the cost of investments for federal income tax purposes was substantially the same as the cost for financial reporting purposes (see the Statement of Investments).

NOTE 5—Legal Matters:

Two class actions have been filed against Mellon Financial and Mellon Bank, N.A., and Dreyfus and Founders Asset Management LLC (the “Investment Advisers”), and the directors of all or substantially all of the Dreyfus funds, alleging that the Investment Advisers improperly used assets of the Dreyfus funds, in the form of directed brokerage commissions and 12b-1 fees, to pay brokers to promote sales of Dreyfus funds, and that the use of fund assets to make these payments was not properly disclosed to investors.The complaints further allege that the directors breached their fiduciary duties to fund shareholders under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and at common law.The complaints seek unspecified compensatory and punitive damages, rescission of the funds’ contracts with the Investment Advisers, an accounting of all fees paid, and an award of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses. Dreyfus and the Dreyfus funds believe the allegations to be totally without merit and will defend the actions vigorously.

Additional lawsuits arising out of these circumstances and presenting similar allegations and requests for relief may be filed against the defendants in the future. Neither Dreyfus nor the Dreyfus funds believe that any of the pending actions will have a material adverse effect on the Dreyfus funds or Dreyfus’ ability to perform its contracts with the Dreyfus funds.

LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN

Dear Shareholder:

This semiannual report for Dreyfus International Stock Index Fund covers the six-month period from November 1, 2003, through April 30, 2004. Inside, you’ll find valuable information about how the fund was managed during the reporting period, including a discussion with the fund’s portfolio manager, Susan Ellison.

Positive economic data continued to accumulate in many of the world’s developed and emerging markets during the reporting period Recovering economies in China and the United States have led to better business conditions for many exporters, including suppliers of energy products and raw materials used in manufacturing.At the same time, relatively low interest rates and robust consumer spending have supported most local economies. As a result, companies around the world have generally enjoyed higher earnings and stock prices.

Despite these encouraging developments, we continue to believe that investors should be aware of potential risks that could lead to heightened volatility or a stock market correction. Chief among them, in our view, are a possible acceleration of inflation, an unexpected interruption of global demand for energy and commodities, and the chance that terrorism could cause renewed instability in international markets As always, we encourage you to speak regularly with your financial advisor, who may be in the best position to suggest ways to position your portfolio for the opportunities and challenges of today’s financial markets.

Thank you for your continued confidence and support.

Sincerely,

Stephen E. Canter

Chairman and Chief Executive Officer

The Dreyfus Corporation

DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

Susan Ellison, Portfolio Manager

How did Dreyfus International Stock Index Fund perform relative to its benchmark?

For the six-month period ended April 30, 2004, the fund produced a total return of 12.28%.¹ This compares with a 12.39% total return for the fund’s benchmark, the Morgan Stanley Capital International Europe, Australasia, Far East Free Index (the “MSCI EAFE Free Index” or the “Index”), during the same period.² In addition, the Lipper International Funds category, in which the fund is reported, achieved an average total return of 10.46% for the same period.³

International markets produced positive returns during the reporting period, with the exception of April, when the threat of higher interest rates led to declining stock prices.The fund’s return performed in line with its benchmark with minor differences primarily due to fund fees and expenses.

What is the fund’s investment approach?

In managing this fund, our goal is to match the performance of the MSCI EAFE Free Index, a broadly diversified, international index composed of slightly more than 1,000 stocks that trade in 21 major markets outside the United States, including Great Britain, Germany, France, Japan, Hong Kong, Singapore, Australia and New Zealand.

Weighted by market capitalization (the total value of all shares outstanding in a country’s stock market) and share liquidity (a measure of the proportion of a company’s shares actually available to be bought or sold by the public), approximately 72% of the MSCI EAFE Free Index’s total value is represented by its top five countries, which currently are Great Britain, Japan, France, Switzerland and Germany. The MSCI EAFE Free Index is diversified among industry groups, as those groups are represented in individual country markets.

The Fund

DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE (continued)

In order to simplify management and control costs, the fund attempts to match the Index’s return, not to duplicate its composition. Our carefully created sample attempts to match index weightings at the country, industry and individual security levels. Beginning by country, the fund invests in proportion to each country’s weighting in the Index. That means that if the British market comprises 25% of the Index, then approximately 25% of the fund’s assets will be invested in Britain. In addition, the fund’s industry allocation also matches that of the Index, in the proper proportion. For example, if a certain percentage of the market value in the Japanese sub-index is composed of financial services firms, that same approximate percentage of the investment in the Japanese markets will also be invested in that sector. At the individual company level, the fund invests in a carefully selected sample of the stocks that make up each country’s index component. The fund also invests in securities that represent the market as a whole, such as stock index futures, and manages its exposure to foreign currencies so that the fund’s currency profile matches the currency makeup of the MSCI EAFE Free Index.

What other factors influenced the fund’s performance?

International markets performed well over the first five months of the reporting period. However, April saw a sharp pullback, partly because of events that took place outside of the EAFE geographical area.The U.S. Federal Reserve Board hinted that higher interest rates were possible sometime this year, while Chinese authorities tightened credit in an effort to forestall excessive economic growth.With demand for goods and services from China and the United States potentially diminishing, investors became concerned that trading partners in EAFE countries might see business decline.

Europe’s economy remained sluggish, as the European Central Bank has kept interest rates relatively high to prevent an unwanted acceleration of inflation. Meanwhile, Japan apparently has finally broken free of a nearly 15-year recession, causing that country’s stock market to

4

perform relatively strongly during the reporting period. Dramatic news regarding the war on terrorism, including the capture of Saddam Hussein and the bombings in Madrid, had a limited impact on international stocks.

As of the end of the reporting period, the countries with the greatest representation in the fund were Great Britain — 25.3%; Japan —22.9%; France — 9.6%; Switzerland — 7.4%; and Germany — 6.8%.

What is the fund’s current strategy?

As an index fund, we do not actively select stocks based on their individual merits. Instead, we believe that attempting to match the Index’s return is a cost-effective way for our shareholders to gain exposure to European and Asian markets for a portion of their overall investment portfolios.

As of the end of the reporting period, international markets have continued to benefit from low interest rates, low inflation and greater economic growth. In our view, moderately rising interest rates are unlikely to threaten the global economic expansion, although the new environment may generate a slower growth rate in 2005 and 2006 than 2004.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

NOTE 1—Significant Accounting Policies:

Dreyfus International Stock Index Fund (the “fund”) is a separate non-diversified series of Dreyfus Index Funds, Inc. (the “Company”) which is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”), as an open-end management investment company and operates as a series company currently offering three series including the fund. The fund’s investment objective is to provide investment results that correspond to the net dividend and total return performance of equity securities of international issuers in the aggregate, as represented by the Morgan Stanley Capital International Europe,Australia, Far East (Free) Index.The Dreyfus Corporation (the “Manager” or “Dreyfus”) serves as the fund’s investment adviser. The Manager is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mellon Financial Corporation (“Mellon Financial”). Dreyfus Service Corporation (the “Distributor”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Manager, is the distributor of the fund’s shares, which are sold to the public without a sales charge.

The fund’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, which may require the use of management estimates and assumptions. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnifications. The fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown.The fund does not anticipate recognizing any loss related to these arrangements.

(a) Portfolio valuation: Investments in securities (including financial futures) are valued at the last sales price on the securities exchange or national securities market on which such securities are primarily traded. Securities listed on the National Market System for which market quotations are available are valued at the official closing price or, if there is no official closing price that day, at the last sale price. Securities not listed on an exchange or the national securities market,

The Fund

41

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)

or securities for which there were no transactions, are valued at the average of the most recent bid and asked prices. Bid price is used when no asked price is available.When market quotations or official closing prices are not readily available, or are determined not to reflect accurately fair value, such as when the value of a security has been significantly affected by events after the close of the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded (for example, a foreign exchange or market), but before the fund calculates its net asset value, the fund may value these investments at fair value as determined in accordance with the procedures approved by the fund’s Board. Fair valuing of securities may be determined with the assistance of a pricing service using calculations based on indices of domestic securities and other appropriate indicators, such as prices of relevant ADR’s and futures contracts. Investments denominated in foreign currencies are translated to U.S. dollars at the prevailing rates of exchange. Forward currency exchange contracts are valued at the forward rate.

(b) Foreign currency transactions: The fund does not isolate that portion of the results of operations resulting from changes in foreign exchange rates on investments from the fluctuations arising from changes in market prices of securities held. Such fluctuations are included with the net realized and unrealized gain or loss from investments.

Net realized foreign exchange gains or losses arise from sales and maturities of short-term securities, sales of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized on securities transactions and the difference between the amounts of dividends, interest and foreign withholding taxes recorded on the fund’s books and the U.S. dollar equivalent of the amounts actually received or paid. Net unrealized foreign exchange gains and losses arise from changes in the value of assets and liabilities other than investments in securities, resulting from changes in exchange rates. Such gains and losses are included with net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investments.

42

(c) Securities transactions and investment income: Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gain and loss from securities transactions are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date and interest income, including, where applicable, amortization of discount and premium on investments, is recognized on the accrual basis.

The fund may lend securities to qualified institutions. At origination, all loans are secured by collateral of at least 102% of the value of U.S. securities loaned and 105% of the value of foreign securities loaned. Collateral equivalent to at least 100% of the market value of securities on loan will be maintained at all times. Cash collateral is invested in certain money market mutual funds managed by the Manager as shown in the fund’s Statement of Investment. The fund will be entitled to receive all income on securities loaned, in addition to income earned as a result of the lending transaction. Although each security loaned is fully collateralized, the fund would bear the risk of delay in recovery of, or loss of rights in, the securities loaned should a borrower fail to return the securities in a timely manner.

(d) Affiliated issuers: Issuers in which the fund held investments in other investment companies advised by the Manager are defined as “affiliated” in the Act.

(e) Dividends to shareholders: Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends from investment income-net and dividends from net realized capital gain, if any, are normally declared and paid annually, but the fund may make distributions on a more frequent basis to comply with the distribution requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).To the extent that net realized capital gain can be offset by capital loss carryovers, it is the policy of the fund not to distribute such gains. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with incomes tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

The Fund

43

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)

(f) Federal income taxes: It is the policy of the fund to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company, if such qualification is in the best interests of its shareholders, by complying with the applicable provisions of the Code, and to make distributions of taxable income sufficient to relieve it from substantially all federal income and excise taxes.

The fund has an unused capital loss carryover of $13,283,414 available for federal income tax purposes to be applied against future net securities profits, if any, realized subsequent to October 31, 2003. If not applied, $58,106 of the carryover expires in fiscal 2005, $167,514 expires in fiscal 2006, $2,874,348 expires in fiscal 2009, $5,891,135 expires in fiscal 2010 and $4,292,311 expires in fiscal 2011.

The tax character of distributions paid to shareholders during the fiscal year ended October 31, 2003, was as follows: ordinary income $1,799,886. The tax character of current year distributions will be determined at the end of the current fiscal year.

NOTE 2—Bank Line Of Credit:

The fund participates with other Dreyfus-managed funds in a $350 million redemption credit facility (the “Facility”) to be utilized for temporary or emergency purposes, including the financing of redemptions. In connection therewith, the fund has agreed to pay commitment fees on its pro rata portion of the Facility. Interest is charged to the fund based on prevailing market rates in effect at the time of borrowings. During the period ended April 30, 2004, the fund did not borrow under the Facility.

NOTE 3—Management Fee and Other Transactions With Affiliates:

(a) Pursuant to an Investment Management Agreement (“Agreement”) with the Manager, the management fee is computed at the annual rate of .35 of 1% of the value of the fund’s average daily net assets, and is payable monthly. Under the terms of the Agreement, the Manager has agreed to pay all the expenses of the fund, except man-

44

agement fees, brokerage commissions, taxes, commitment fees, interest, Shareholder Services Plan fees, fees and expenses of non-interested Board Members (including counsel fees) and extraordinary expenses. In addition, the Manager is required to reduce its fee in an amount equal to the fund’s allocable portion of fees and expenses of the non-interested Board Members (including counsel fees). Each Board member also serves as a Board Member of other funds within the Dreyfus complex (collectively, the “Fund Group”). Each Board member receives an annual fee of $25,000, an attendance fee of $4,000 for each in-person meeting and $500 for telephone meetings.The chairman of the Board receives an additional 25% of such compensation (with the exception of reimbursable amounts). Subject to the Company’s Emeritus Program Guidelines, Emeritus Board members, if any, receive 50% of the Company’s annual retainer fee and per meeting fee paid at the time the Board member achieves emeritus status.Amounts required to be paid by the Company directly to the non-interested Board members, that were applied to offset a portion of the management fee payable to the Manager were in fact paid directly by the Manager to the non-interested Board members. All Board fees are allocated among the funds in the Fund Group in proportion to each fund’s relative net assets. This amount for the period ended April 30, 2004 was $1,024.

The components of Due to The Dreyfus Corporation and affiliates in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities consists of: management fees $31,971 and shareholder services plan fees $22,836.

(b) Under the Shareholder Services Plan, the fund pays the Distributor for the provision of certain services, a fee at the annual rate of .25 of 1% of the value of the fund’s average daily net assets.The services provided may include personal services relating to shareholder accounts, such as answering shareholder inquiries regarding the fund and providing reports and other information, and services related to the maintenance of shareholder accounts. The Distributor may make payments to Service Agents (a securities dealer, financial institution or

The Fund

45

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)

other industry professional) in respect of these services. The Distributor determines the amounts to be paid to Service Agents. During the period ended April 30, 2004, the fund was charged $129,622 pursuant to the Shareholder Services Plan.

(c) A 1% redemption fee is charged and retained by the fund on shares redeemed within six months following the date of issuance, including redemptions made through the use of the fund’s exchange privilege. During the period ended April 30, 2004, redemption fees charged and retained by the fund amounted to $7,998.

(d) Pursuant to an exemptive order from the Securities and Exchange Commission, the fund invests it’s available cash balances in affiliated money market mutual funds as shown in the fund’s Statement of Investments. Management fees are not charged to these money market mutual funds. During the period ended April 30, 2004, the fund derived $14,440 in income from these investments, which is included as dividend income in the fund’s Statement of Operations.

NOTE 4—Securities Transactions:

The aggregate amount of purchases and sales of investment securities, excluding short-term securities, forward currency exchange contracts and financial futures, during the period ended April 30, 2004, amounted to $7,620,464 and $1,333,762, respectively.

The fund may enter into forward currency exchange contracts in order to hedge its exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates on its foreign portfolio holdings and to settle foreign currency transactions. When executing forward currency exchange contracts, the fund is obligated to buy or sell a foreign currency at a specified rate on a certain date in the future. With respect to sales of forward currency exchange contracts, the fund would incur a loss if the value of the contract increases between the date the forward contract is opened and the date the forward contract is closed.The fund realizes a gain if the value of the contract decreases between those dates.With respect to purchases of forward currency exchange contracts, the fund would incur a loss if the value of the contract decreases between the date the forward contract is opened and the date the forward contract is closed.

46

The fund may invest in financial futures contracts in order to gain exposure to or protect against changes in the market. The fund is exposed to market risk as a result of changes in the value of the underlying financial instruments. Investments in financial futures require the fund to “mark to market” on a daily basis, which reflects the change in the market value of the contract at the close of each day’s trading. Typically, variation margin payments are received or made to reflect daily unrealized gains or losses.When the contracts are closed, the fund recognizes a realized gain or loss. These investments require initial margin deposits with a broker, which consist of cash or cash equiva-

lents.The amount of these deposits is determined by the exchange or Board of Trade on which the contract is traded and is subject to change. Contracts open as of April 30, 2004, are set forth in the Statement of Financial Futures.

At April 30, 2004, accumulated net unrealized appreciation on investments was $14,710,694, consisting of $20,557,122 gross unrealized appreciation and $5,846,428 gross unrealized depreciation.

At April 30, 2004, the cost of investments for federal income tax purposes was substantially the same as the cost for financial reporting purposes (see the Statement of Investments).

NOTE 5—Legal Matters:

Two class actions have been filed against Mellon Financial and Mellon Bank, N.A., and Dreyfus and Founders Asset Management LLC (the “Investment Advisers”), and the directors of all or substantially all of the Dreyfus funds, alleging that the Investment Advisers improperly used assets of the Dreyfus funds, in the form of directed brokerage commissions and 12b-1 fees, to pay brokers to promote sales of Dreyfus funds, and that the use of fund assets to make these payments was not properly disclosed to investors.The complaints further allege that the directors breached their fiduciary duties to fund shareholders under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and at common law.The complaints seek unspecified compensatory and punitive damages, rescission of the funds’ contracts with the Investment Advisers, an accounting of all fees paid, and an award of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses. Dreyfus and the Dreyfus funds believe the allegations to be totally without merit and will defend the actions vigorously.

Additional lawsuits arising out of these circumstances and presenting similar allegations and requests for relief may be filed against the defendants in the future. Neither Dreyfus nor the Dreyfus funds believe that any of the pending actions will have a material adverse effect on the Dreyfus funds or Dreyfus’ ability to perform its contracts with the Dreyfus funds.

Smallcap Stock Index Fund

The Fund

LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN

Dear Shareholder:

This semiannual report for Dreyfus Smallcap Stock Index Fund covers the six-month period from November 1, 2003, through April 30, 2004. Inside, you’ll find valuable information about how the fund was managed during the reporting period, including a discussion with the fund’s portfolio manager,Tom Durante.

Positive economic data continued to accumulate during the reporting period, as consumers, flush with extra cash from federal tax refunds and mortgage refinancings, continued to spend. At the same time, recent evidence of stronger job growth supports the view that corporations have become more willing to spend and invest. One result of the economic rebound has been higher overall earnings and stock prices for many U.S. companies.

Although recent economic news generally has been encouraging, we continue to believe that investors should be aware of the potential risks that could lead to heightened volatility or a stock market correction. Chief among them, in our view, are a possible acceleration of inflation and the chance that terrorism could cause instability in global markets. As always, we encourage you to speak regularly with your financial advisor, who may be in the best position to suggest ways to position your portfolio for the opportunities and challenges of today’s financial markets.

Thank you for your continued confidence and support.

Sincerely,

Stephen E. Canter

Chairman and Chief Executive Officer

The Dreyfus Corporation

DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

Tom Durante, Portfolio Manager

How did Dreyfus Smallcap Stock Index Fund perform relative to its benchmark?

For the six-month period ended April 30, 2004, Dreyfus Smallcap Stock Index Fund produced a total return of 8.10%.¹ The Standard & Poor’s SmallCap 600 Index (the “S&P 600 Index”), the fund’s benchmark, produced a 8.47% return for the same period.^2,3

We attribute the fund’s performance to the effects of a strengthening economy, in which renewed growth was driven by improving corporate sentiment, low interest rates and lower income federal tax rates enacted in the spring of 2003.Although small-cap stocks generally posted higher returns than mid- and large-cap stocks for the reporting period as a whole, in 2004 we began to detect an apparent shift in investors’ preferences toward larger-cap stocks. The difference in returns between the fund and the S&P 600 Index was primarily due to the fund’s sampling strategy, transaction costs and other fund operating expenses.

What is the fund’s investment approach?

The fund seeks to match the total return of the S&P 600 Index.To reac this goal, the fund generally invests in a representative sample of the stock listed in the S&P 600 Index.While the portfolio manager strives to ow the vast majority of the stocks in the S&P 600 Index, he may avoid som very small, less liquid names. Often considered a barometer for the smal cap stock market in general, the S&P 600 Index is composed of 60 domestic stocks across 10 economic sectors. Each stock is weighted by i market capitalization; that is, larger companies have greater representatio in the S&P 600 Index than smaller ones. The fund may also use stoc index futures as a substitute for the sale or purchase of stocks.

As an index fund, the fund uses a passive management approach: all investment decisions are made based on the composition of the S&P 600 Index.The fund does not attempt to manage market volatility.

DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE (continued)

Small-cap stocks are often those of new and entrepreneurial companies and tend to grow faster than large-cap companies.They also typically use any profits for expansion rather than for paying dividends. Compared to larger, more established companies, small companies are subject to more erratic market movements and may carry additional risks because, among other things, their revenues and earnings also tend to be less predictable. As a result, their stocks tend to be less liquid and more volatile.

What other factors influenced the fund’s performance?

When the reporting period began, small-cap stocks continued to flourish as investors’ appetite for risk increased in a recovering economy. Historically, small-cap stocks have tended to produce higher returns than larger-cap stocks during the early stages of economic recoveries, and the beginning of the reporting period was no exception. However, as the economic recovery progressed in early 2004, investors became increasingly concerned that rising inflationary pressures might lead to higher interest rates. As a result, market sentiment appeared to shift from smaller growth-oriented stocks toward larger-cap value stocks.

For the overall reporting period, the fund’s greatest gains stemmed from the industrial parts industry group, which benefited from higher demand from U.S. manufacturers and infrastructure development in the emerging industrial economies of China, Africa, India and South America. Small energy stocks, including oil services companies, also benefited from stronger global growth and higher commodity prices during the reporting period.

Health care stocks produced relatively attractive returns, with particularly robust gains among small-cap medical products and service companies. For example, the fund’s investments in the health care sector saw higher stock prices among small companies providing products and services for sleep diagnostics, plastic surgery and health services for

4

newborns, including a special hearing test administered in the first few hours of birth.

On the other hand, technology stocks generally lagged the averages during the reporting period. Semiconductor stocks provided especially disappointing returns when profit margins were eroded by higher spending levels required to meet rising demand. In addition, airline companies performed relatively poorly due to higher fuel prices and terrorism-related concerns.

What is the fund’s current strategy?

As an index fund, our strategy is to attempt to replicate the returns of the small-cap market as represented by the S&P 600 Index. Accordingly, as of the end of the reporting period the percentage of the fund’s assets invested in each market sector closely approximated its representation in the S&P 600 Index.

Share price and investment return fluctuate such that upon redemption, fund shares may be worth more or less than their original cost. Return figures provided reflect the absorption of fund expenses by The Dreyfus Corporation pursuant to an agreement in effect that may be extended, terminated or modified. Had these expenses not been absorbed, the fund’s returns would have been lower.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

NOTE 1—Significant Accounting Policies:

Dreyfus Smallcap Stock Index Fund (the “fund”) is a separate non-diversified series of Dreyfus Index Funds, Inc. (the “Company”) which is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the “Act”), as an open-end management investment company and operates as a series company currently offering three series including the fund.The fund’s investment objective is to match the performance of the Standard & Poor’s Small Cap 600 Index. The Dreyfus Corporation (the “Manager” or “Dreyfus”) serves as the fund’s investment adviser. The Manager is a wholly-owned subsidiary of Mellon Financial Corporation (“Mellon Financial”). Dreyfus Service Corporation (the “Distributor”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Manager, is the distributor of the fund’s shares, which are sold to the public without a sales charge.

The fund’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, which may require the use of management estimates and assumptions. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The fund enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnifications. The fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements is unknown.The fund does not anticipate recognizing any loss related to these arrangements.

(a) Portfolio valuation: Investments in securities (including financial futures) are valued at the last sales price on the securities exchange or national securities market on which such securities are primarily traded. Securities listed on the National Market System for which market quotations are available are valued at the official closing price or, if there is no official closing price that day, at the last sale price. Securities not listed on an exchange or the national securities market, or securities for which there were no transactions, are valued at the

The Fund

29

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)

average of the most recent bid and asked prices. Bid price is used when no asked price is available.When market quotations or official closing prices are not readily available, or are determined not to reflect accurately fair value, such as when the value of a security has been significantly affected by events after the close of the exchange or market on which the security is principally traded (for example, a foreign exchange or market), but before the fund calculates its net asset value, the fund may value these investments at fair value as determined in accordance with the procedures approved by the fund’s Board. Fair valuing of securities may be determined with the assistance of a pricing service using calculations based on indices of domestic securities and other appropriate indicators, such as prices of relevant ADR’s and futures contracts. Short-term investments (excluding U.S. Treasury Bills) are carried at amortized cost, which approximates value.

(b) Securities transactions and investment income: Securities transactions are recorded on a trade date basis. Realized gain and loss from securities transactions are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date and interest income, including, where applicable, amortization of discount and premium on investments, is recognized on the accrual basis.

The fund may lend securities to qualified institutions. At origination, all loans are secured by collateral of at least 102% of the value of U.S. securities loaned and 105% of the value of foreign securities loaned. Collateral equivalent to at least 100% of the market value of securities on loan will be maintained at all times. Cash collateral is invested in certain money market mutual funds managed by the Manager. The fund will be entitled to receive all income on securities loaned, in addition to income earned as a result of the leading transaction. Such income earned is included in interest income. Although each security loaned is fully collateralized, the fund would bear the risk of delay in recovery of, or loss of rights in, the securities loaned should a borrower fail to return the securities in a timely manner.

30

(c) Affiliated issuers: Issuers in which the fund held investments in other investment companies advised by the Manager are defined as “affiliated” in the Act.

(d) Repurchase agreements: The fund may engage in repurchase agreement transactions. Under the terms of a typical repurchase agreement, the fund, through its custodian and sub-custodian, takes possession of an underlying debt obligation subject to an obligation of the seller to repurchase, and the fund to resell, the obligation at an agreed-upon price and time, thereby determining the yield during the fund’s holding period.This arrangement results in a fixed rate of return that is not subject to market fluctuations during the fund’s holding period. The value of the collateral is at least equal, at all times, to the total amount of the repurchase obligation, including interest. In the event of a counter party default, the fund has the right to use the collateral to offset losses incurred. There is potential loss to the fund in the event the fund is delayed or prevented from exercising its rights to dispose of the collateral securities, including the risk of a possible decline in the value of the underlying securities during the period while the fund seeks to assert its rights.The Manager, acting under the supervision of the Board of Directors, reviews the value of the collateral and the cred-itworthiness of those banks and dealers with which the fund enters into repurchase agreements to evaluate potential risks.

(e) Dividends to shareholders: Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Dividends from investment income-net and dividends from net realized capital gain, if any, are normally declared and paid annually, but the fund may make distributions on a more frequent basis to comply with the distribution requirements of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”).To the extent that net realized capital gain can be offset by capital loss carryovers, if any, it is the policy of the fund not to distribute such gain. Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

The Fund

31

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)

(f) Federal income taxes: It is the policy of the fund to continue to qualify as a regulated investment company, if such qualification is in the best interests of its shareholders, by complying with the applicable provisions of the Code, and to make distributions of taxable income sufficient to relieve it from substantially all federal income and excise taxes.

The fund has an unused capital loss carryover of $720,311 available for federal income tax purposes to be applied against future net securities profits, if any, realized subsequent to October 31, 2003. If not applied, the carryover expires in fiscal 2011.

The tax character of distributions paid to shareholders during the fiscal year ended October 31, 2003, was as follows: ordinary income $595,185 and long-term capital gains $385,518. The tax character of current year distributions will be determined at the end of the current fiscal year.

NOTE 2—Bank Line of Credit:

The fund participates with other Dreyfus-managed funds in a $350 million redemption credit facility (the “Facility”) to be utilized for temporary or emergency purposes, including the financing of redemptions. In connection therewith, the fund has agreed to pay commitment fees on its pro rata portion of the Facility. Interest is charged to the fund based on prevailing market rates in effect at the time of borrowings.

The average daily amount of borrowings outstanding under the Facility during the period ended April 30, 2004, was approximately $189,300 with a related weighted average annualized interest rate of 1.45%.

NOTE 3—Management Fee and Other Transactions With Affiliates:

(a) Pursuant to an Investment Management Agreement (“Agreement”) with the Manager, the management fee is computed at the annual rate of .25 of 1% of the value of the fund’s average daily net

32

assets, and is payable monthly. Under the terms of the Agreement, the Manager has agreed to pay all the expenses of the fund, except management fees, brokerage commissions, taxes, interest, commitment fees, Shareholder Services Plan fees, fees and expenses of non-interested Board members (including counsel fees) and extraordinary expenses. In addition, the Manager is required to reduce its fee in an amount equal to the fund’s allocable portion of fees and expenses of the non-interested Board members (including counsel fees). Each Board member also serves as a Board member of other funds within the Dreyfus complex (collectively, the “Fund Group”). Each Board member receives an annual fee of $25,000, an attendance fee of $4,000 for each in-person meeting and $500 for telephone meetings.The chairman of the Board receives an additional 25% of such compensation (with the exception of reimburseable amounts). Subject to the Company’s Emeritus Program Guidelines, Emeritus Board Members, if any, receive 50% of the annual retainer fee and per meeting fee paid at the time the Board member achieves emeritus status.Amounts required to be paid by the Company directly to the non-interested Board members, that were applied to offset a portion of the management fee payable to the Manager, were in fact paid directly by the Manager to the non-interested Board members.All Board fees are allocated among the funds in the Fund Group in proportion to each fund’s relative net assets.This amount for the period ended April 30, 2004 was $3,439.

The components of Due to The Dreyfus Corporation and affiliates in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities consists of: management fees $79,715 and shareholders services plan fees $79,715.

(b) Under the Shareholder Services Plan, the fund pays the Distributor for the provision of certain services at the annual rate of .25 of 1% of the value of the fund’s average daily net assets. The services provided may include personal services relating to shareholder accounts, such as answering shareholder inquiries regarding the fund and providing reports and other information, and services related to the maintenance of shareholder accounts. The Distributor may make payments to

The Fund

33

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)

Service Agents (a securities dealer, bank or other financial institution) in respect of these services.The Distributor determines the amounts to be paid to Service Agents. During the period ended April 30, 2004, the fund was charged an aggregate of $431,832 pursuant to the Shareholder Services Plan.

(c) A 1% redemption fee is charged and retained by the fund on shares redeemed within six months following the date of issuance, including redemptions made through the use of the fund’s exchange privilege. During the period ended April 30, 2004, redemption fees amounted to $13,337.

NOTE 4—Securities Transactions:

The aggregate amount of purchases and sales of investment securities, excluding short-term securities and financial futures, during the period ended April 30, 2004, amounted to $124,263,625 and $39,909,357, respectively.

The fund may invest in financial futures contracts in order to gain exposure to or protect against changes in the market. The fund is exposed to market risk as a result of changes in the value of the underlying financial instruments. Investments in financial futures require the fund to “mark to market” on a daily basis, which reflects the change in the market value of the contract at the close of each day’s trading. Accordingly, variation margin payments are received or made to reflect daily unrealized gains or losses.When the contracts are closed, the fund recognizes a realized gain or loss.These investments require initial margin deposits with a broker, which consist of cash or cash equivalents. The amount of these deposits is determined by the exchange or Board of Trade on which the contract is traded and is subject to change. Contracts open at April 30, 2004, are set forth in the Statement of Financial Futures.

At April 30, 2004, accumulated net unrealized appreciation on investments was $54,951,532, consisting of $71,063,708 gross unrealized appreciation and $16,112,176 gross unrealized depreciation.

34

At April 30, 2004, the cost of investments for federal income tax purposes was substantially the same as the cost for financial reporting purposes (see the Statement of Investments).

NOTE 5—Legal Matters:

Two class actions have been filed against Mellon Financial and Mellon Bank, N.A., and Dreyfus and Founders Asset Management LLC (the “Investment Advisers”), and the directors of all or substantially all of the Dreyfus funds, alleging that the Investment Advisers improperly used assets of the Dreyfus funds, in the form of directed brokerage commissions and 12b-1 fees, to pay brokers to promote sales of Dreyfus funds, and that the use of fund assets to make these payments was not properly disclosed to investors.The complaints further allege that the directors breached their fiduciary duties to fund shareholders under the Investment Company Act of 1940 and at common law.The complaints seek unspecified compensatory and punitive damages, rescission of the funds’ contracts with the Investment Advisers, an accounting of all fees paid, and an award of attorneys’ fees and litigation expenses. Dreyfus and the Dreyfus funds believe the allegations to be totally without merit and will defend the actions vigorously.

Additional lawsuits arising out of these circumstances and presenting similar allegations and requests for relief may be filed against the defendants in the future. Neither Dreyfus nor the Dreyfus funds believe that any of the pending actions will have a material adverse effect on the Dreyfus funds or Dreyfus’ ability to perform its contracts with the Dreyfus funds.
