Dreyfus 
Smallcap Stock Index Fund 

A LETTER FROM THE CEO

Dear Shareholder:

We are pleased to present this semiannual report for Dreyfus Smallcap Stock Index Fund, covering the six-month period from November 1, 2006, through April 30, 2007.

The U.S. economy moderated throughout the reporting period as a cooling housing market took its toll on consumer and business spending, and key measures of inflation stayed stubbornly above the Federal Reserve’s stated “comfort zone.”Yet, labor markets remained relatively strong and the general markets continued toward record price levels. Dreyfus’ chief economist believes that these seemingly conflicting signals may be the result of a lag between the current downturn in housing activity and its likely dampening effect on housing-related employment. In his view, inflationary pressures may moderate over the coming months in an environment of modestly rising unemployment rates and sub-par economic growth.

The likely implications of this economic outlook include a long pause in Fed policy before an eventual easing of short-term interest rates, a modest drop in 10-year Treasury bond yields, decelerating corporate earnings, continued high pace of mergers-and-acquisitions activity and a probable continuation of the ongoing shift in investor sentiment toward higher quality stocks.We expect these developments to produce both challenges and opportunities in the financial markets, and your financial advisor can help determine the appropriate investments for you and position your investment portfolio for these trends.

For information about how the fund performed during the reporting period, as well as market perspectives, we have provided a Discussion of Fund Performance given by the fund’s Portfolio Manager.

Thank you for your continued confidence and support.

DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

Tom Durante, CFA, Portfolio Manager

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

For the six-month period ended April 30, 2007, Dreyfus Smallcap Stock Index Fund produced a total return of 8.17% .1 The Standard & Poor’s SmallCap 600 Index (the “S&P 600 Index”) produced a 8.41% return for the same period.2,3

Despite occasional bouts of volatility during the reporting period, the small-cap stock market generally advanced in an environment of robust corporate earnings, subdued inflation and stable interest rates. Gains were especially pronounced in the industrials, materials, information technology and energy areas. 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 fund operating expenses.

What is the fund’s investment approach?

The fund seeks to match the total return of the S&P 600 Index by generally investing in a representative sample of the stocks listed in the S&P 600 Index. While the fund generally owns the vast majority of the stocks in the S&P 600 Index, some very small stocks may be excluded from the portfolio.The S&P 600 Index is composed of 600 domestic stocks across 10 economic sectors. Each stock is weighted by its market capitalization; that is, larger companies have greater representation in the S&P 600 Index than smaller ones. The fund may also use stock index futures as a substitute for the sale or purchase of stocks.

What other factors influenced the fund’s performance?

During the reporting period, U.S. economic growth slowed gradually, led by weakness in the housing market. In contrast to the United States, many international economies flourished during the reporting period, most notably China, Europe, Australia and New Zealand.These trends

DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE (continued)

suggest that the United States may have passed the baton in driving the growth of the global economy, at least temporarily, to other countries.

In this environment, U.S. stocks posted generally favorable returns over the first few months of the reporting period, fueled by rising mergers-and-acquisitions activity, strong corporate earnings, low unemployment, stable interest rates and subdued inflation. Turmoil in Chinese equity markets and the U.S. sub-prime mortgage market in late February produced heightened volatility in the U.S. financial markets, but the decline proved to be short-lived. The small-cap market rallied strongly in late March and April, more than offsetting any previous weakness.

Some of the small-cap market’s stronger gains for the reporting period were produced by stocks in the industrials sector, where machinery companies posted especially positive returns, most notably lawn and garden equipment firms. Mining equipment stocks also gained value in a strong commodities market. Other positive contributors within the industrials area included parts suppliers to the defense industry, where armor companies benefited from sales of materials used in helicopters, missile nose cones and diesel engine components as well as bullet-resistant helmets, vests and flak jackets for troops.

Gains for the S&P 600 Index were also particularly robust in the metals and mining industry within the materials sector. Steel, iron and titanium stocks posted solid gains, in part as a result of their military application but also due to increased demand for the commodities and construction materials needed to build industrial infrastructures in the world’s emerging markets. For example, steel producers advanced sharply due to ongoing industry consolidation and surging demand from China and India.

A number of software companies within the information technology area benefited from increased mergers-and-acquisitions activity. Top performers included companies that help other companies improve productivity through business performance management systems. Other winners in this group included firms that offer data research to financial services and gaming software companies.

Energy stocks ranked among the stronger contributors to the S&P 600 Index’s performance during the reporting period, with particular strength among drillers benefiting from the surge in mergers-and-acquisitions activity. Companies that manufacture and supply parts to the drilling industry, including special alloys for tubular goods and sub-sea control systems, also flourished in this environment.

On the other hand, many of the S&P 600 Index’s commercial banks were hindered by slowing business trends, primarily in Michigan, California and Florida, which have been hurt by lagging real estate markets.The housing slowdown and sub-prime lending issues also hurt thrifts and mortgage lenders.

What is the fund’s current strategy?

As an index fund, our strategy is to attempt to replicate the returns of the S&P 600 Index by investing in a representative sample of the stocks listed in the S&P 600 Index.While small-cap stocks may involve greater risk than larger-cap stocks, we believe that an investment in a broadly diversified small-cap index fund, such as Dreyfus Smallcap Stock Index Fund, may help investors manage the risks associated with small-cap investing by limiting the impact on the overall portfolio of unexpected losses in any single industry group or holding.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES (Unaudited)

As a mutual fund investor, you pay ongoing expenses, such as management fees and other expenses. Using the information below, you can estimate how these expenses affect your investment and compare them with the expenses of other funds.You also may pay one-time transaction expenses, including sales charges (loads) and redemption fees, which are not shown in this section and would have resulted in higher total expenses. For more information, see your fund’s prospectus or talk to your financial adviser.

Review your fund’s expenses

The table below shows the expenses you would have paid on a $1,000 investment in Dreyfus Smallcap Stock Index Fund from November 1, 2006 to April 30, 2007. It also shows how much a $1,000 investment would be worth at the close of the period, assuming actual returns and expenses.

Expenses and Value of a $1,000 Investment assuming actual returns for the six months ended April 30, 2007

Expenses paid per $1,000     $ 2.58 
Ending value (after expenses)    $1,081.70 

COMPARING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES WITH THOSE OF OTHER FUNDS (Unaudited)

Using the SEC’s method to compare expenses

The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has established guidelines to help investors assess fund expenses. Per these guidelines, the table below shows your fund’s expenses based on a $1,000 investment, assuming a hypothetical 5% annualized return. You can use this information to compare the ongoing expenses (but not transaction expenses or total cost) of investing in the fund with those of other funds.All mutual fund shareholder reports will provide this information to help you make this comparison. Please note that you cannot use this information to estimate your actual ending account balance and expenses paid during the period.

Expenses and Value of a $1,000 Investment assuming a hypothetical 5% annualized return for the six months ended April 30, 2007

Expenses paid per $1,000     $ 2.51 
Ending value (after expenses)    $1,022.32 

Expenses are equal to the fund’s annualized expense ratio of .50%, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 181/365 (to reflect the one-half year period).

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 SmallCap 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.

On May 24, 2007, the shareholders of Mellon Financial and The Bank of New York Company, Inc. approved the proposed merger of the two companies. The new company will be called The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation.As part of this transaction, Dreyfus would become a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation.The transaction is subject to certain regulatory approvals, as well as other customary conditions to closing. Subject to such approvals and the satisfaction of the other conditions, Mellon Financial and The Bank of New York Company, Inc. expect the transaction to be completed in the third quarter of 2007.

The fund’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, which requires 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 are valued at the last sales price on the securities exchange or national securities market on

30

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 sales 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, except for open short positions, where the asked price is used for valuation purposes. Bid price is used when no asked price is available. Registered open-end investment companies that are not traded on an exchange are valued at their net asset value.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 of Directors. 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. For other securities that are fair valued by the funds Board of Directors, certain factors may be considered such as: fundamental analytical data, the nature and duration of restrictions on disposition, an evaluation of the forces that influence the market in which the securities are purchased and sold, and public trading in similar securities of the issuer or comparable issuers. Financial futures are valued at the last sales price on the principal exchange.

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) released Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157 “Fair Value Measurements” (“FAS 157”). FAS 157 establishes an authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value, and requires additional disclosures about fair-value measurements. The application of FAS 157 is required for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years.

The Fund 31


NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)

Management does not believe that the application of this standard will have a material impact on the financial statements of the fund.

(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 is determined on the basis of coupon interest accrued, adjusted for accretion of discount and amortization of premium on debt securities.

Pursuant to a securities lending agreement with Mellon Bank, N.A, an affiliate of the Manager, the fund may lend securities to qualified institutions. It is the fund’s policy that 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. It is the fund’s policy that collateral equivalent to at least 100% of the market value of securities on loan is maintained at all times. Cash collateral is invested in certain money market mutual funds managed by the Manager. The fund is entitled to receive all income on securities loaned, in addition to income earned as a result of the leading transaction.Although each security loaned is fully collateralized, the fund bears 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: Investments in other investment companies advised by the Manager are defined as “affiliated” in the Act.

(d) 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.

32

(e) 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. Accordingly, no provision for income tax is required.

The FASB released FASB Interpretation No. 48 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (FIN 48). FIN 48 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements. FIN 48 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the fund’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority.Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year.Adoption of FIN 48 is required for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006 and is to be applied to all open tax year as of the effective date. Management does not believe that the application of this standard will have a material impact on the financial statements of the fund.

The tax character of distributions paid to shareholders during the fiscal years ended October 31, 2006, were as follows: ordinary income $5,773,253 and long-term capital gains $6,985,754.The tax character of current 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 Fund 33


NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)

The average daily amount of borrowings outstanding under the Facility during the period ended April 30, 2007, was approximately $240,700 with a related weighted average annualized interest rate of 5.77% .

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 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 fee in an amount equal to the fund’s allocable portion of fees and expenses of the non-interested Board members (including counsel fees). Currently, the Company and 13 other funds (comprised of 41 portfolios) in the Dreyfus Family of Funds pay each Board member their respective allocated portion of an annual retainer of $85,000, and an attendance fee of $10,000 for each regularly scheduled Board meeting, an attendance fee of $2,000 for each separate in-person committee meeting that is not held in conjunction with a regularly scheduled Board meeting, and an attendance fee of $1,000 for each Board meeting and separate committee meetings that are conducted by telephone. The Chairman of the Board receives an additional 25% of such compensation and the Audit Committee Chairman receives an additional $15,000 per annum.The Company also reimburses each Board member for travel and out of pocket expenses in connection with attending Board or committee meetings. Subject to the Company’s Emeritus Program Guidelines, Emeritus Board Members, if any, receive 50% of

34

the Company’s 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.

(b) Under the Shareholder Services Plan, the fund pays the Distributor for the provision of certain services at the annual rate of .25% 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, 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, 2007, the fund was charged an aggregate of $1,163,054 pursuant to the Shareholder Services Plan.

The components of Due to The Dreyfus Corporation and affiliates in the Statements of Assets and Liabilities consist of: management fees $202,190 and shareholders services plan fees $202,190.

(c) A 2% redemption fee is charged and retained by the fund on certain shares redeemed within 60 days of purchase subject to exceptions described in the fund’s current prospectus. During the period ended April 30, 2007, redemption fees charged and received by the fund amounted to $15,302.

(d) Pursuant to an exemptive order from SEC, the fund invests it’s available cash balances in affiliated money market mutual funds. Management fees of the underlying money market mutual funds have been waived by the Manager.

The Fund 35

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, 2007, amounted to $133,285,898 and $103,452,843, 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, 2007, are set forth in the Statement of Financial Futures.

At April 30, 2007, accumulated net unrealized appreciation on investments was $262,607,609, consisting of $292,604,518 gross unrealized appreciation and $29,996,909 gross unrealized depreciation.

At April 30, 2007, the cost of investments for federal income tax purposes was substantially the same as the cost for financial reporting purposes (see Statement of Investment).

INFORMATION ABOUT THE REVIEW AND APPROVAL OF THE 
FUND’S INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT (Unaudited) 

At a meeting of the fund’s Board held on March 7 and 8, 2007, the Board unanimously approved the continuation of the fund’s Management Agreement with Dreyfus for a one-year term ending March 30, 2008. The Board members, none of whom are “interested persons” (as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) of the fund were assisted in their review by independent legal counsel and met with counsel in executive session separate from representatives of Dreyfus. In approving the continuance of the Management Agreement, the Board considered all factors that they believed to be relevant, including, among other things, the factors discussed below.

Analysis of Nature, Extent and Quality of Services Provided to the Fund. The Board members received a presentation from representatives of Dreyfus regarding services provided to the fund and other funds in the Dreyfus fund complex, and discussed the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the fund pursuant to its Management Agreement. Dreyfus’s representatives reviewed the fund’s distribution of accounts and the relationships Dreyfus has with various intermediaries and the different needs of each. Dreyfus’s representatives noted the various distribution channels for the fund as well as the diverse methods of distribution among other funds in the Dreyfus fund complex, and Dreyfus’s corresponding need for broad, deep, and diverse resources to be able to provide ongoing shareholder services to each distribution channel, including those of the fund. Dreyfus also provided the number of accounts investing in the fund, as well as the fund’s asset size.

The Board members also considered Dreyfus’s research and portfolio management capabilities and Dreyfus’s oversight of day-to-day fund operations, including fund accounting and administration and assistance in meeting legal and regulatory requirements.The Board members also considered Dreyfus’s extensive administrative, accounting and compliance infrastructure.

Comparative Analysis of the Fund’s Performance and Management Fee and Expense Ratio. The Board members reviewed the fund’s performance, management fee and expense ratio, placing significant emphasis on comparative data supplied by Lipper, Inc., an independent provider

The Fund 37


INFORMATION ABOUT THE REVIEW AND APPROVAL OF THE FUND’S INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT (Unaudited) (continued)

of mutual fund data, including contractual and actual (net of fee waivers and expense reimbursements) management fees, operating expense components and total return performance.The fund’s performance was compared to that of a Performance Universe, consisting of all funds with the same Lipper classification/objective, and a Performance Group, consisting of comparable funds chosen by Lipper based on guidelines previously approved by the Board. Similarly, the fund’s contractual and actual management fee and operating expenses were compared to those of an Expense Universe, consisting of funds with the same or similar Lipper classification/objective, and an Expense Group, consisting comparable funds chosen by Lipper based on guidelines previously approved by the Board.As part of its review of expenses, the Board also considered other fund expenses, such as transfer agent fees, custody fees, 12b-1 or non-12b-1 service fees (if any), and other non-management fees, as well as any waivers or reimbursements of fees and expenses.

In its review of performance, the Board noted that the fund’s average annual total return ranked first among its Performance Group, and in the second or third quintile of its Performance Universe, for the one-, two-, three-, four-, and five-year periods ended December 31, 2006.

In its review of the fund’s management fee and operating expenses, the Board examined the range of management fees and expense ratios of the funds in the Expense Group and Expense Universe, noting, among other things, that under the fund’s management contract, Dreyfus has agreed to pay all of the fund’s expenses, except management fees, shareholder services fees, brokerage commissions, taxes, interest fees and expenses of the non-interested directors and of independent counsel to the fund, and extraordinary expenses.The Board noted that the fund’s total expense ratio was in the second quintile of the Expense Group and the Expense Universe (the first quintile represents the funds with the lowest fees).

Representatives of Dreyfus reviewed with the Board members the fees paid to Dreyfus or its affiliates by mutual funds and/or separate accounts managed by Dreyfus with similar investment objectives, policies and strategies as the fund (the “Similar Accounts”), and explained the nature

38

of the Similar Accounts and the differences, from Dreyfus’s perspective, as applicable, in providing services to the Similar Accounts as compared to the fund. Dreyfus’s representatives also reviewed the costs associated with distribution through intermediaries. The Board analyzed differences in fees paid to Dreyfus and discussed the relationship of the advisory fees paid in light of Dreyfus’s performance, and the services provided. The Board members considered the relevance of the fee information provided for the Similar Accounts managed by Dreyfus, to evaluate the appropriateness and reasonableness of the fund’s management fees. The Board acknowledged that differences in fees paid by the Similar Accounts seemed to be consistent with the services provided.

Analysis of Profitability and Economies of Scale. Dreyfus’s representatives reviewed the dollar amount of expenses allocated and profit received by Dreyfus and the method used to determine such expenses and profit. The Board members evaluated the profitability analysis in light of the relevant circumstances for the fund and the extent to which economies of scale would be realized if the fund grows and whether fee levels reflect these economies of scale for the benefit of fund investors. The Board members also considered potential benefits to Dreyfus from acting as investment adviser and noted that there were no soft dollar arrangements with respect to trading the fund’s investments.

It was noted that the Board members should consider Dreyfus’s profitability with respect to the fund as part of their evaluation of whether the fees under the Management Agreement bear a reasonable relationship to the mix of services provided by Dreyfus, including the nature, extent and quality of such services and that a discussion of economies of scale is predicated on increasing assets and that, if a fund’s assets had been decreasing, the possibility that Dreyfus may have realized any economies of scale would be less. It also was noted that the profitability percentage for managing the fund was within ranges determined by appropriate court cases to be reasonable given the services rendered and generally superior service levels provided.The Board also noted the fee waiver and expense reimbursement arrangements in place for the fund and its effect on Dreyfus’s profitability.

The Fund 39


INFORMATION ABOUT THE REVIEW AND APPROVAL OF THE FUND’S INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT (Unaudited) (continued)

At the conclusion of these discussions, the Board agreed that it had been furnished with sufficient information to make an informed business decision with respect to continuation of the fund’s Management Agreement. Based on the discussions and considerations as described above, the Board made the following conclusions and determinations.

  • The Board concluded that the nature, extent and quality of the ser- vices provided by Dreyfus are adequate and appropriate.
  • The Board generally was satisfied with the fund’s perfromance.
  • The Board concluded that the fee paid by the fund to Dreyfus was reasonable in light of the services provided, comparative perfor- mance, expense and advisory fee information, costs of the services provided and profits to be realized and benefits derived or to be derived by Dreyfus from its relationship with the fund.
  • The Board determined that the economies of scale which may accrue to Dreyfus and its affiliates in connection with the manage- ment of the fund had been adequately considered by Dreyfus in connection with the management fee rate charged to the fund and that, to the extent in the future it were determined that material economies of scale had not been shared with the fund, the Board would seek to have those economies of scale shared with the fund.

The Board members considered these conclusions and determinations, along with information received on a routine and regular basis throughout the year, and, without any one factor being dispositive, the Board determined that continuation of the fund’s Management Agreement was in the best interests of the fund and its shareholders.

Stock Index Fund 

A LETTER FROM THE CEO

Dear Shareholder:

We are pleased to present this semiannual report for Dreyfus International Stock Index Fund, covering the six-month period from November 1, 2006, through April 30, 2007.

Heightened volatility in global stock markets has suggested that investors’ appetite for risk is waning. Near the end of February 2007, a sudden and sharp decline in the Shanghai stock market shook equity markets worldwide, including the United States. The Shanghai market apparently reacted to fears that China would need to take steps to reduce the developing nation’s unsustainably high growth rate by raising their short-term rates. Although most international markets subsequently rebounded by the end of April, investors remained cautious with regard to risks posed by a potential interruption of the current global economic expansion.

At the same time, the U.S. dollar has continued to decline relative to many other currencies, including the euro and British pound, making investments denominated in foreign currencies more valuable for U.S. residents.A stubborn U.S. trade deficit and higher interest rates in overseas markets have resulted in a flow of global capital away from U.S. markets and toward those with higher potential returns.As always, your financial advisor can help determine the appropriate investments for you and position your investment portfolio for exposure to these markets.

For information about how the fund performed during the reporting period, as well as market perspectives, we have provided a Discussion of Fund Performance given by the fund’s Portfolio Managers.

Thank you for your continued confidence and support.

DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

Susan Ellison, Richard A. Brown and Karen Q. Wong, Portfolio Managers

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

For the six-month period ended April 30, 2007, the fund produced a total return of 15.17% .1 This compares with a 15.46% 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

Strong global economic growth, intensifying mergers-and-acquisitions activity and favorable business dynamics helped international stock markets gain value over the reporting period.The difference in returns between the fund and the Index was primarily the result of transaction costs and operating expenses.

On a separate note, effective April 23, 2007, Richard A. Brown and Karen Q. Wong joined Ms. Ellison as co-primary portfolio managers of the fund.

What is the fund’s investment approach?

The fund seeks to match the performance of the MSCI EAFE Free Index, a broadly diversified, international index composed of approximately 1,100 stocks that trade in 21 major markets outside the United States. The fund attempts to match the Index’s return before fees and expenses by aligning the portfolio composition with the composition of the MSCI EAFE Free Index. 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?

The international equity markets posted generally strong returns during the reporting period, fueled by corporate restructuring and mergers-

DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE (continued)

and-acquisitions activities throughout much of Europe. High levels of business confidence, positive earnings announcements and favorable economic growth forecasts in most countries also supported stock prices. In fact, many analysts have suggested that, after driving the growth of the global economy for an extended time, the United States may have passed that baton, at least temporarily, to other countries.

In Europe, improving domestic economic conditions, rising exports and aggressive corporate restructuring efforts have helped bolster a number of stocks, including food producers, beverage makers, brewers and automobile manufacturers. Utilities stocks in Germany, Spain and the United Kingdom posted especially strong results in a consolidating industry and in response to greater demand for electric power across the globe. On the other hand, while Japan’s domestic economy remains in a recovery phase, it has been slow to gain momentum. Tighter Japanese restrictions on cross-border transactions have resulted in fewer corporate mergers than in Europe and the United States, which has also weighed heavily on its stock market.

For the reporting period overall, the Index posted positive absolute returns in all 21 of the countries it tracks. In fact, with the exception of Japan, all countries represented in the Index achieved double-digit returns for the reporting period.

Some of the Index’s better returns stemmed from its holdings in Norway, Singapore, Sweden and Denmark, which returned 32%, 31%, 30% and 29%, respectively, for the reporting period. Conversely, Japan, Spain and the United Kingdom were among the Index’s laggards, with more modest returns of 5%, 13% and 13%, respectively, for the same period.

From a market sector standpoint, the capital goods, transportation, multi-industry and consumer non-durables areas ranked among the top contributors to the Index’s return during the reporting period. On the other hand, the health care, energy and banking areas were among the Index’s least positive performers. However, it should be noted that all three of the worst-performing sectors provided positive absolute returns, which we believe is testament to the underlying strength of the international stock markets during the reporting period.

4


On an individual stock basis, the Index’s returns were driven higher by a wide variety of companies, including Denmark’s Vestas Wind Systems, a manufacturer of wind turbines used to produce electricity; Mitsumi Electric, a Japanese electronic components distributor; Orient Overseas Limited International, a Hong Kong-based shipping firm that also has real estate interests in China and New York; and Austria’s bwin Interactive Entertainment, an online gaming firm that rebounded after international industry regulations were finalized. Some of the Index’s more disappointing returns stemmed from Japanese companies that provide services to the telecommunications industry. Laggards included Index Holdings, formerly known as Index Corporation, a developer of imaging software for Internet-connected mobile phones; Fujikura, a wire and cable manufacturer; and eAccess Co. Ltd., a provider of advanced software technologies.

What is the fund’s current strategy?

The fund’s longstanding strategy is to provide investors with a cost-effective way to gain broad exposure to developed international markets, as represented by the MSCI EAFE Free Index. As an index fund, the fund’s investments are not affected by any individual’s preference for one market over another or one security over another. In fact, we do not attempt to manage market volatility. Instead the fund employs a passive management approach in which all investment decisions are based on the composition of the MSCI EAFE Free Index.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ( U n a u d i t e d )

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 match the performance of the Morgan Stanley Capital International Europe, Australasia, Far East (Free) Index (EAFE).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.

On May 24, 2007, the shareholders of Mellon Financial and The Bank of New York Company, Inc. approved the proposed merger of the two companies. The new company will be called The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation.As part of this transaction, Dreyfus would become a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation.The transaction is subject to certain regulatory approvals, as well as other customary conditions to closing. Subject to such approvals and the satisfaction of the other conditions, Mellon Financial and The Bank of New York Company, Inc. expect the transaction to be completed in the third quarter of 2007.

The fund’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, which requires 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.

The Fund 47


NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)

(a) Portfolio valuation: Investments in securities 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 sales 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, except for open short positions, where the asked price is used for valuation purposes. Bid price is used when no asked price is available. Registered open-ended investment companies that are not traded on exchange are valued at their net asset value.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 of Directors. 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. For other securities that are fair valued by the fund’s Board of Directors, certain factors may be considered such as: fundamental analytical data, the nature and duration of restrictions on disposition, an evaluation of the forces that influence the market in which the securities are purchased and sold, and public trading in similar securities of the issuer or comparable issuers. 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. Financial futures are valued at the last sales price on the principle exchange.

48


The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) released Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157 “Fair Value Measurements” (“FAS 157”). FAS 157 establishes an authoritative definition of fair value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value, and requires additional disclosures about fair-value measurements. The application of FAS 157 is required for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Management does not believe that the application of this standard will have a material impact on the financial statements of the fund.

(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 on 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.

(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 is determined on the basis of coupon interest accrued, adjusted for accretion of discount and amortization of premium on debt securities.

The Fund 49


NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)

Pursuant to a securities lending agreement with Mellon Bank, N.A, an affiliate of the Manager, the fund may lend securities to qualified institutions. It is the fund’s policy 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. It is the fund’s policy that collateral equivalent to at least 100% of the market value of securities on loan is maintained at all times. Cash collateral is invested in certain money market mutual funds managed by the Manager. The fund is 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 bears 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: 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 income 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. Accordingly, no provision for income tax is required.

The FASB released FASB Interpretation No. 48 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (FIN 48). FIN 48 provides guidance for

50


how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements. FIN 48 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the fund’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority.Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year. Adoption of FIN 48 is required for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006 and is to be applied to all open tax years as of the effective date. Management does not believe that the application of this standard will have a material impact on the financial statements of the fund.

The fund has unused capital loss carryover of $7,146,950 available for federal income tax purposes to be applied against future net securities profits, if any, realized subsequent to October 31, 2006. If not applied, $2,075,999 of the carryover expires in fiscal 2010, $4,292,311 expires in fiscal 2011 and $778,640 expires in fiscal 2012.

The tax character of distributions paid to shareholders during the fiscal year ended October 31, 2006 were as follows: ordinary income $4,095,715.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, 2007, 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 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, 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”). Currently, the Company and 13 other funds (comprised of 41 portfolios) in the Dreyfus Family of Funds pay each Board member their respective allocated portion of an annual retainer of $85,000, and an attendance fee of $10,000 for each regularly scheduled Board meetings, an attendance fee of $2,000 for each separate in-person committee meeting that is not held in conjunction with a regularly scheduled Board meeting and an attendance fee of $1,000 for each Board meetings and separate committee meetings that are conducted by telephone. The Chairman of the Board receives an additional 25% of such compensation and the Audit Committee Chairman receives an additional $15,000 per annum.The Company also reimburses each Board member for travel and out of pocket expenses in connection with attending Board or committee meetings. 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.All Board fees are allocated among the funds in the Fund Group in proportion to each fund’s relative net assets.

(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 the value of the fund’s average daily net assets. The services provided

52


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 ended April 30, 2007, the fund was charged $494,217 pursuant to the Shareholder Services Plan.

The components of Due to The Dreyfus Corporation and affiliates in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities consist of: management fees $127,405, and shareholder services plan fees $91,003.

(c) A 2% redemption fee is charged and retained by the fund on certain shares redeemed within 60 days of purchase subject to exceptions described in the fund’s current prospectus. During the period April 30, 2007, redemption fees charged and received by the fund amounted to $5,415.

(d) Pursuant to an exemptive order from the SEC, the fund invests it’s available cash balances in affiliated money market mutual funds. Management fees of the underlying money market mutual funds have been waived by the Manager.

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, 2007, amounted to $39,748,938 and $3,331,630, 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 cur-

The Fund 53


NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)

rency 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. The fund realizes a gain if the value of the contract increases between those dates. The fund is also exposed to credit risk associated with counter party nonperformance on these forward currency exchange contracts which is typically limited to the unrealized gain on each open contract. The following summarizes open forward currency exchange contracts at April 30, 2007:

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 equivalents. The amount of these deposits is determined by the exchange or Board

54


of Trade on which the contract is traded and is subject to change. Contracts open as of April 30, 2007, are set forth in the Statement of Financial Futures.

At April 30, 2007, accumulated net unrealized appreciation on investments was $140,859,808, consisting of $144,140,832 gross unrealized appreciation and $3,281,024 gross unrealized depreciation.

At April 30, 2007, the cost of investments for federal income tax purposes was substantially the same as the cost for financial reporting purposes (see Statement of Investments).

INFORMATION ABOUT THE REVIEW AND APPROVAL OF THE

FUND’S INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT (Unaudited)

At a meeting of the fund’s Board held on March 7 and 8, 2007, the Board unanimously approved the continuation of the fund’s Management Agreement with Dreyfus for a one-year term ending March 30, 2008. The Board members, none of whom are “interested persons” (as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) of the fund were assisted in their review by independent legal counsel and met with counsel in executive session separate from representatives of Dreyfus. In approving the continuance of the Management Agreement, the Board considered all factors that they believed to be relevant, including, among other things, the factors discussed below.

Analysis of Nature, Extent and Quality of Services Provided to the Fund. The Board members received a presentation from representatives of Dreyfus regarding services provided to the fund and other funds in the Dreyfus fund complex, and discussed the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the fund pursuant to its Management Agreement. Dreyfus’s representatives reviewed the fund’s distribution of accounts and the relationships Dreyfus has with various intermediaries and the different needs of each. Dreyfus’s representatives noted the various distribution channels for the fund as well as the diverse methods of distribution among other funds in the Dreyfus fund complex, and Dreyfus’s corresponding need for broad, deep, and diverse resources to be able to provide ongoing shareholder services to each distribution channel, including those of the fund. Dreyfus also provided the number of accounts investing in the fund, as well as the fund’s asset size.

The Board members also considered Dreyfus’s research and portfolio management capabilities and Dreyfus’s oversight of day-to-day fund operations, including fund accounting and administration and assistance in meeting legal and regulatory requirements.The Board members also considered Dreyfus’s extensive administrative, accounting and compliance infrastructure.

Comparative Analysis of the Fund’s Performance and Management Fee and Expense Ratio. The Board members reviewed the fund’s performance, management fee and expense ratio, placing significant emphasis

56


on comparative data supplied by Lipper, Inc., an independent provider of mutual fund data, including contractual and actual (net of fee waivers and expense reimbursements) management fees, operating expense components and total return performance.The fund’s performance was compared to that of a Performance Universe, consisting of all funds with the same Lipper classification/objective, and a Performance Group, consisting of comparable funds chosen by Lipper based on guidelines previously approved by the Board. Similarly, the fund’s contractual and actual management fee and operating expenses were compared to those of an Expense Universe, consisting of funds with the same or similar Lipper classification/objective, and an Expense Group, consisting of comparable funds chosen by Lipper based on guidelines previously approved by the Board. As part of its review of expenses, the Board also considered other fund expenses, such as transfer agent fees, custody fees, 12b-1 or non-12b-1 service fees (if any), and other non-management fees, as well as any waivers or reimbursements of fees and expenses.

In its review of performance, the Board noted that the fund’s average annual total return was in the fourth quintile of the Performance Group, and in the third quintile of the Performance Universe, for the one period ended December 31, 2006.

In its review of the fund’s management fee and operating expenses, the Board examined the range of management fees and expense ratios of the funds in the Expense Group and Expense Universe, noting, among other things, that under the fund’s management contract, Dreyfus has agreed to pay all of the fund’s expenses, except management fees, shareholder services fees, brokerage commissions, taxes, interest fees and expenses of the non-interested directors and of independent counsel to the fund, and extraordinary expenses.The Board noted that the fund’s total expense ratio was in the first quintile of the Expense Group and the second quintile of the Expense Universe (the first quintile represents the funds with the lowest fees).

The Fund 57


INFORMATION ABOUT THE REVIEW AND APPROVAL OF THE FUND’S

INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT (Unaudited) (continued)

Representatives of Dreyfus reviewed with the Board members the fees paid to Dreyfus or its affiliates by mutual funds and/or separate accounts managed by Dreyfus with similar investment objectives, policies and strategies as the fund (the “Similar Accounts”), and explained the nature of the Similar Accounts and the differences, from Dreyfus’s perspective, as applicable, in providing services to the Similar Accounts as compared to the fund. Dreyfus’s representatives also reviewed the costs associated with distribution through intermediaries. The Board analyzed differences in fees paid to Dreyfus and discussed the relationship of the advisory fees paid in light of Dreyfus’s performance, and the services provided. The Board members considered the relevance of the fee information provided for the Similar Accounts managed by Dreyfus, to evaluate the appropriateness and reasonableness of the fund’s management fees. The Board acknowledged that differences in fees paid by the Similar Accounts seemed to be consistent with the services provided.

Analysis of Profitability and Economies of Scale. Dreyfus’s representatives reviewed the dollar amount of expenses allocated and profit received by Dreyfus and the method used to determine such expenses and profit. The Board members evaluated the profitability analysis in light of the relevant circumstances for the fund and the extent to which economies of scale would be realized if the fund grows and whether fee levels reflect these economies of scale for the benefit of fund investors. The Board members also considered potential benefits to Dreyfus from acting as investment adviser and noted that there were no soft dollar arrangements with respect to trading the fund’s investments.

It was noted that the Board members should consider Dreyfus’s profitability with respect to the fund as part of their evaluation of whether the fees under the Management Agreement bear a reasonable relationship to the mix of services provided by Dreyfus, including the nature, extent and quality of such services and that a discussion of economies of scale is predicated on increasing assets and that, if a fund’s assets had been decreasing, the possibility that Dreyfus may have realized any economies of scale would be less. It also was noted that the profitability percentage for managing the fund was within ranges

58


determined by appropriate court cases to be reasonable given the services rendered and generally superior service levels provided. The Board also noted the fee waiver and expense reimbursement arrangements in place for the fund and its effect on Dreyfus’s profitability.

At the conclusion of these discussions, the Board agreed that it had been furnished with sufficient information to make an informed business decision with respect to continuation of the fund’s Management Agreement. Based on the discussions and considerations as described above, the Board made the following conclusions and determinations.

  • The Board concluded that the nature, extent and quality of the ser- vices provided by Dreyfus are adequate and appropriate.
  • The Board generally was satisfied with the fund’s perfromance.
  • The Board concluded that the fee paid by the fund to Dreyfus was reasonable in light of the services provided, comparative perfor- mance, expense and advisory fee information, costs of the services provided and profits to be realized and benefits derived or to be derived by Dreyfus from its relationship with the fund.
  • The Board determined that the economies of scale which may accrue to Dreyfus and its affiliates in connection with the manage- ment of the fund had been adequately considered by Dreyfus in connection with the management fee rate charged to the fund and that, to the extent in the future it were determined that material economies of scale had not been shared with the fund, the Board would seek to have those economies of scale shared with the fund.

The Board members considered these conclusions and determinations, along with information received on a routine and regular basis throughout the year, and, without any one factor being dispositive, the Board determined that continuation of the fund’s Management Agreement was in the best interests of the fund and its shareholders.

A LETTER FROM THE CEO

Dear Shareholder:

We are pleased to present this semiannual report for Dreyfus S&P 500 Index Fund, covering the six-month period from November 1, 2006, through April 30, 2007.

The U.S. economy moderated throughout the reporting period as a cooling housing market took its toll on consumer and business spending, and key measures of inflation stayed stubbornly above the Federal Reserve’s stated “comfort zone.”Yet, labor markets remained relatively strong and the general markets continued toward record price levels. Dreyfus’ chief economist believes that these seemingly conflicting signals may be the result of a lag between the current downturn in housing activity and its likely dampening effect on housing-related employment. In his view, inflationary pressures may moderate over the coming months in an environment of modestly rising unemployment rates and sub-par economic growth.

The likely implications of this economic outlook include a long pause in Fed policy before an eventual easing of short-term interest rates, a modest drop in 10-year Treasury bond yields, decelerating corporate earnings, continued high pace of mergers-and-acquisitions activity and a probable continuation of the ongoing shift in investor sentiment toward higher quality stocks.We expect these developments to produce both challenges and opportunities in the financial markets, and your financial advisor can help determine the appropriate investments for you and position your investment portfolio for these trends.

For information about how the fund performed during the reporting period, as well as market perspectives, we have provided a Discussion of Fund Performance given by the fund’s Portfolio Manager.

Thank you for your continued confidence and support.

DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

Tom Durante, CFA, Portfolio Manager

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

For the six-month period ended April 30, 2007, the fund produced a total return of 8.34% .1 In comparison, the Standard & Poor’s 500 Composite Stock Price Index (the “S&P 500 Index”), the fund’s benchmark, produced an 8.60% return for the same period.2,3

Despite occasional bouts of volatility during the reporting period, the U.S. stock market advanced in an environment of robust corporate earnings, subdued inflation and stable interest rates.The difference in returns between the fund and the S&P 500 Index was primarily the result of transaction costs and operating expenses that are not reflected in the S&P 500 Index’s results.

What is the fund’s investment approach?

The fund seeks to match the total return of the S&P 500 Index by generally investing in all 500 stocks in the S&P 500 Index in proportion to their respective weighting. 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. 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 S&P 500 Index is dominated by large-cap, blue-chip stocks that comprise nearly 75% of total U.S. market capitalization.

What other factors influenced the fund’s performance?

During the reporting period, U.S. economic growth slowed gradually, led by weakness in the housing market. In contrast to the United States, many international economies have flourished during the reporting period, most notably China, Europe, Australia and New Zealand.

DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE (continued)

These trends suggest that the United States may have passed the baton in driving the growth of the global economy, at least temporarily, to other countries.

In this environment, U.S. stocks posted generally favorable returns over the first few months of the reporting period, fueled by rising mergers-and-acquisitions activity, strong corporate earnings, low unemployment, stable interest rates and subdued inflation. Turmoil in Chinese equity markets and the U.S. sub-prime mortgage market in late February produced heightened volatility in the U.S. financial markets, but the decline proved to be short-lived.The stock market rallied strongly in late March and April, and the S&P 500 Index ended the reporting period just shy of the all-time high set in March 2000.

Energy stocks ranked among the stronger contributors to the S&P 500 Index’s results for the reporting period. Integrated energy producers and oil services providers fared especially well, largely because they were able to offset the effects of volatile oil prices with more consistent results from their natural gas and chemicals divisions. In addition, oil refineries benefited from a scarcity of capacity. Utilities stocks also fared well during the reporting period, due to greater demand for electric power in a moderately growing economy.

A number of insurance companies, asset management firms and mutual fund companies within the financials sector contributed positively to the performance of the S&P 500 Index. Insurance companies posted generally strong returns due to greater pricing power and a lack of catastrophic claims compared to previous reporting periods. In addition, many insurance companies achieved higher sales of variable annuity products, life insurance and directors-and-officers liability insurance. Banks generally benefited from good results produced by their international operations and credit card businesses, while asset management firms gained value amid robust stock market trading volumes and increased mergers-and-acquisitions activity.

Within the information technology sector, some of the larger integrated technology companies rallied on the strength of improved business-to-business sales, while companies of personal computers and electronic

consumer products benefited from pricing concessions extracted from its suppliers. In the consumer discretionary sector, media stocks gained value in an improving environment for their television news, film and publishing divisions, while consumer staples stocks benefited from good performance among beverage producers and a long-awaited spin-off in the food-and-tobacco industry.

On the other hand, relatively few industry groups detracted from the S&P 500 Index’s overall return during the reporting period.Automobile manufacturers disappointed due to shrinking domestic auto and weakness. Other laggards included air and ground freight companies, which suffered in a slowing U.S. economy.

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 by maintaining an asset allocation that closely approximates that of the S&P 500 Index. In our view, an investment in a broadly diversified index fund, such as Dreyfus S&P 500 Index Fund, may help investors in their efforts to manage stock market risk by limiting the impact on the overall portfolio of unexpected losses in any single industry group or holding.

As a mutual fund investor, you pay ongoing expenses, such as management fees and other expenses. Using the information below, you can estimate how these expenses affect your investment and compare them with the expenses of other funds.You also may pay one-time transaction expenses, including sales charges (loads) and redemption fees, which are not shown in this section and would have resulted in higher total expenses. For more information, see your fund’s prospectus or talk to your financial adviser.

Review your fund’s expenses

The table below shows the expenses you would have paid on a $1,000 investment in Dreyfus S&P 500 Index Fund from November 1, 2006 to April 30, 2007. It also shows how much a $1,000 investment would be worth at the close of the period, assuming actual returns and expenses.

COMPARING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES WITH THOSE OF OTHER FUNDS (Unaudited)

Using the SEC’s method to compare expenses

The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has established guidelines to help investors assess fund expenses. Per these guidelines, the table below shows your fund’s expenses based on a $1,000 investment, assuming a hypothetical 5% annualized return. You can use this information to compare the ongoing expenses (but not transaction expenses or total cost) of investing in the fund with those of other funds.All mutual fund shareholder reports will provide this information to help you make this comparison. Please note that you cannot use this information to estimate your actual ending account balance and expenses paid during the period.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS ( U n a u d i t e d )

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.

On May 24, 2007, the shareholders of Mellon Financial and The Bank of New York Company, Inc. approved the proposed merger of the two companies.The new company will be called The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation. As part of this transaction, Dreyfus would become a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation.The transaction is subject to certain regulatory approvals, as well as other customary conditions to closing. Subject to such approvals and the satisfaction of the other conditions, Mellon Financial and The Bank of New York Company, Inc. expect the transaction to be completed in the third quarter of 2007.

The fund’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles, which requires 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.

28


(a) Portfolio valuation: Investments in securities 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 sales 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, except for open short positions, where the asked price is used for valuation purposes. Bid price is used when no asked price is available. Registered open-ended investment companies that are not traded on an exchange are valued at their net asset value.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 of Directors. 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. For other securities that are fair valued by the fund’s Board of Directors, certain factors may be considered such as: fundamental analytical data, the nature and duration of restrictions on disposition, an evaluation of the forces that influence the market in which the securities are purchased and sold, and public trading in similar securities of the issuer or comparable issuers. Financial futures are valued at the last sales price on the principal exchange.

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) released Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 157 “Fair Value Measurements” (“FAS 157”). FAS 157 establishes an authoritative definition of fair

The Fund 29


NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)

value, sets out a framework for measuring fair value, and requires additional disclosures about fair-value measurements.The application of FAS 157 is required for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2007 and interim periods within those fiscal years. Management does not believe that the application of this standard will have a material impact on the financial statements of the fund.

(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, is determined on the basis of coupon interest accrued, adjusted for, accretion of discount and amortization of premium on debt securities.

Pursuant to a securities lending agreement with Mellon Bank N.A., an affiliate of the Manager, the fund may lend securities to qualified institutions. It is the fund’s policy that 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. It is the fund’s policy that collateral equivalent to at least 100% of the market value of securities on loan is 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 is 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 bears 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: Investments in other investment companies advised by the Manager are defined as “affiliated” in the Act.

(d) 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,

30


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 income tax regulations, which may differ from U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.

(e) 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. Accordingly, no provision for income tax is required.

The FASB released FASB Interpretation No. 48 “Accounting for Uncertainty in Income Taxes” (FIN 48). FIN 48 provides guidance for how uncertain tax positions should be recognized, measured, presented and disclosed in the financial statements. FIN 48 requires the evaluation of tax positions taken or expected to be taken in the course of preparing the fund’s tax returns to determine whether the tax positions are “more-likely-than-not” of being sustained by the applicable tax authority.Tax positions not deemed to meet the more-likely-than-not threshold would be recorded as a tax benefit or expense in the current year.Adoption of FIN 48 is required for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2006 and is to be applied to all open tax years as of the effective date. Management does not believe that the application of this standard will have a material impact on the financial statements of the fund.

The tax character of distributions paid to shareholders during the fiscal year ended October 31, 2006, were as follows: ordinary income $44,603,659. The tax character of current year distributions will be determined at the end of current fiscal year.

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. All Board fees are allocated among the funds in the Fund Group in proportion to each fund’s relative net assets.

(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 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, 2007, the fund was charged $4,596,170 pursuant to the Shareholder Services Plan.

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, 2007, are set forth in the Statement of Financial Futures.

At April 30, 2007, accumulated net unrealized appreciation on investments was $1,404,657,330, consisting of $1,553,065,923 gross unrealized appreciation and $148,408,593 gross unrealized depreciation.

At April 30, 2007, the cost of investments for federal income tax purposes was substantially the same as the cost for financial reporting purposes (see Statement of Investment).

INFORMATION ABOUT THE REVIEW AND APPROVAL OF THE

FUND’S INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT (Unaudited)

At a meeting of the fund’s Board held on March 7 and 8, 2007, the Board unanimously approved the continuation of the fund’s Management Agreement with Dreyfus for a one-year term ending March 30, 2008. The Board members, none of whom are “interested persons” (as defined in the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended) of the fund were assisted in their review by independent legal counsel and met with counsel in executive session separate from representatives of Dreyfus. In approving the continuance of the Management Agreement, the Board considered all factors that they believed to be relevant, including, among other things, the factors discussed below.

Analysis of Nature, Extent and Quality of Services Provided to the Fund. The Board members received a presentation from representatives of Dreyfus regarding services provided to the fund and other funds in the Dreyfus fund complex, and discussed the nature, extent and quality of the services provided to the fund pursuant to its Management Agreement. Dreyfus’s representatives reviewed the fund’s distribution of accounts and the relationships Dreyfus has with various intermediaries and the different needs of each. Dreyfus’s representatives noted the various distribution channels for the fund as well as the diverse methods of distribution among other funds in the Dreyfus fund complex, and Dreyfus’s corresponding need for broad, deep, and diverse resources to be able to provide ongoing shareholder services to each distribution channel, including those of the fund. Dreyfus also provided the number of accounts investing in the fund, as well as the fund’s asset size.

The Board members also considered Dreyfus’s research and portfolio management capabilities and Dreyfus’s oversight of day-to-day fund operations, including fund accounting and administration and assistance in meeting legal and regulatory requirements.The Board members also considered Dreyfus’s extensive administrative, accounting and compliance infrastructure.

Comparative Analysis of the Fund’s Performance and Management Fee and Expense Ratio. The Board members reviewed the fund’s performance, management fee and expense ratio, placing significant emphasis

INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT (Unaudited) (continued)

on comparative data supplied by Lipper, Inc., an independent provider of mutual fund data, including contractual and actual (net of fee waivers and expense reimbursements) management fees, operating expense components and total return performance.The fund’s performance was compared to that of a Performance Universe, consisting of all funds with the same Lipper classification/objective, and a Performance Group, consisting of comparable funds chosen by Lipper based on guidelines previously approved by the Board. Similarly, the fund’s contractual and actual management fee and operating expenses were compared to those of an Expense Universe, consisting of funds with the same or similar Lipper classification/objective, and an Expense Group, consisting comparable funds chosen by Lipper based on guidelines previously approved by the Board.As part of its review of expenses, the Board also considered other fund expenses, such as transfer agent fees, custody fees, 12b-1 or non-12b-1 service fees (if any), and other non-management fees, as well as any waivers or reimbursements of fees and expenses.

In its review of performance, the Board noted that the fund’s average annual total return ranked in the third quintile of its Performance Group and its Performance Universe for the one-, two-, three, and four-year periods ended December 31, 2006. The Board further noted that the fund’s total return was at the median of the Performance Group average for the one- and two-year period ended December 31, 2006.

In its review of the fund’s management fee and operating expenses, the Board examined the range of management fees and expense ratios of the funds in the Expense Group and Expense Universe, noting, among other things, that under the fund’s management contract, Dreyfus has agreed to pay all of the fund’s expenses, except management fees, shareholder services fees, brokerage commissions, taxes, interest fees and expenses of the non-interested directors and of independent counsel to the fund, and extraordinary expenses.The Board noted that the fund’s total expense ratio was at the median of the Expense Group and below the median of the Expense Universe.

Representatives of Dreyfus reviewed with the Board members the fees paid to Dreyfus or its affiliates by mutual funds and/or separate accounts

managed by Dreyfus with similar investment objectives, policies and strategies as the fund (the “Similar Accounts”), and explained the nature of the Similar Accounts and the differences, from Dreyfus’s perspective, as applicable, in providing services to the Similar Accounts as compared to the fund. Dreyfus’s representatives also reviewed the costs associated with distribution through intermediaries. The Board analyzed differences in fees paid to Dreyfus and discussed the relationship of the advisory fees paid in light of Dreyfus’s performance, and the services provided. The Board members considered the relevance of the fee information provided for the Similar Accounts managed by Dreyfus, to evaluate the appropriateness and reasonableness of the fund’s management fees. The Board acknowledged that differences in fees paid by the Similar Accounts seemed to be consistent with the services provided.

Analysis of Profitability and Economies of Scale. Dreyfus’s representatives reviewed the dollar amount of expenses allocated and profit received by Dreyfus and the method used to determine such expenses and profit. The Board members evaluated the profitability analysis in light of the relevant circumstances for the fund and the extent to which economies of scale would be realized if the fund grows and whether fee levels reflect these economies of scale for the benefit of fund investors. The Board members also considered potential benefits to Dreyfus from acting as investment adviser and noted that there were no soft dollar arrangements with respect to trading the fund’s investments.

It was noted that the Board members should consider Dreyfus’s profitability with respect to the fund as part of their evaluation of whether the fees under the Management Agreement bear a reasonable relationship to the mix of services provided by Dreyfus, including the nature, extent and quality of such services and that a discussion of economies of scale is predicated on assets increasing significantly. It also was noted that the profitability percentage for managing the fund was within ranges determined by appropriate court cases to be reasonable given the services rendered and generally superior service levels provided.The Board also noted the fee waiver and expense reimbursement arrangements in place for the fund and its effect on Dreyfus’s profitability.

INFORMATION ABOUT THE REVIEW AND APPROVAL OF THE FUND’S

INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT AGREEMENT (Unaudited) (continued)

At the conclusion of these discussions, the Board agreed that it had been furnished with sufficient information to make an informed business decision with respect to continuation of the fund’s Management Agreement. Based on the discussions and considerations as described above, the Board made the following conclusions and determinations.

  • The Board concluded that the nature, extent and quality of the ser- vices provided by Dreyfus are adequate and appropriate.
  • The Board generally was satisfied with the fund’s total return.
  • The Board concluded that the fee paid by the fund to Dreyfus was reasonable in light of the services provided, comparative perfor- mance, expense and advisory fee information, costs of the services provided and profits to be realized and benefits derived or to be derived by Dreyfus from its relationship with the fund.
  • The Board determined that the economies of scale which may accrue to Dreyfus and its affiliates in connection with the manage- ment of the fund had been adequately considered by Dreyfus in connection with the management fee rate charged to the fund and that, to the extent in the future it were determined that material economies of scale had not been shared with the fund, the Board would seek to have those economies of scale shared with the fund.

The Board members considered these conclusions and determinations, along with information received on a routine and regular basis throughout the year, and, without any one factor being dispositive, the Board determined that continuation of the fund’s Management Agreement was in the best interests of the fund and its shareholders.
