SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT

President's Message

Dear Shareholder:

I am pleased to present the Semi-Annual Report for Federated Mid-Cap Fund, a portfolio of Federated Index Trust, which covers the six-month period from November 1, 1999 through April 30, 2000. The report begins with an investment review, followed by the fund's portfolio and its financial statements.

As its name implies, Federated Mid-Cap Fund gives you a highly efficient way to pursue the performance of the mid-cap stock market. Stocks in the fund are weighted in the same proportion as the stocks that make up the Standard & Poor's Mid-Cap 400 Index. This unmanaged index consists of 400 common stocks issued by medium-sized domestic companies with a median market capitalization of $1.1 billion.1

Over the six-month reporting period, the fund produced a total return of 20.64% through dividend income of $0.08 per share, capital gains of $2.22 per share and a $1.07 increase in net asset value.2 On the last day of the reporting period, the fund's net assets totaled $144 million.

Thank you for putting your money to work in mid-cap stocks through the efficiency and professional management of Federated Mid-Cap Fund. As always, we invite your comments and suggestions.

Sincerely,

Glen R. Johnson

Glen R. Johnson
President
June 15, 2000

1 Federated Mid-Cap Fund seeks investment results that correspond to the aggregate price and total return performance of the Standard & Poor's Mid-Cap Index. "Standard & Poor's," "S&P," "S&P Mid-Cap 400 Index," "Standard & Poor's Mid-Cap 400 Index" are trademarks of Standard & Poor's Ratings Group (S&P) and have been licensed for use by Federated Securities Corp. The fund is neither affiliated with nor promoted, sponsored, sold, or endorsed by S&P. Its only relationship to the fund is the licensing of the use of the index. This index is unmanaged. Investments cannot be made in an index.

2 Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.

Investment Review

The fund's total return for the six months ended April 30, 2000 was 20.64%.1 The fund's target index, the Standard & Poor's Mid-Cap 400 Index (the "Index") had a total return of 21.23% during the reporting period. Fund performance varied from the Index due to transaction costs, administrative expenses and holdings of stock index futures contracts, which are held to enhance fund liquidity.

The U.S. stock market rallied strongly in the latter part of 1999, but has been volatile in the early part of 2000. The wide divergence in price appreciation between "new economy" or technology-driven stocks, and "old economy" stocks, which became very apparent in late 1999, was corrected in early 2000 as many technology stock investors began to fear rising interest rates, increasing investor usage of margin debt (leverage) and a general speculation in Internet-related stocks.

Medium and small company stocks outperformed large company stocks during the last six months, making up for some of their lagging performance over the last 2-3 years. Growth-oriented stocks outperformed value-oriented stocks in late 1999, but value stocks have held up relatively well in early 2000 compared to growth stocks, which were more affected by market weakness.

During the last six months, health care, oil and gas drilling and independent power producers were among the strongest performing sectors, while iron and steel, banks and specialty metals were among the worst performing sectors in the Index.

1 Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate, so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.

Notes to Financial Statements

APRIL 30, 2000 (UNAUDITED)

ORGANIZATION

Federated Index Trust (the "Trust") is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act"), as an open-end, management investment company. The Trust consists of three portfolios. The financial statements included herein are only those of Federated Mid-Cap Fund (the "Fund"), a diversified portfolio. The financial statements of the other portfolios are presented separately. The assets of each portfolio are segregated and a shareholder's interest is limited to the portfolio in which shares are held. The investment objective of the Fund is to provide investment results generally corresponding to the aggregate price and dividend performance of publicly traded common stocks that comprise the mid-level stock capitalization sector of the United States equity market.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. These policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

Investment Valuation

Listed equity securities are valued at the last sale price reported on a national securities exchange. Short-term securities are valued at the prices provided by an independent pricing service. However, short-term securities with remaining maturities of 60 days or less at the time of purchase may be valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair market value.

Repurchase Agreements

It is the policy of the Fund to require the custodian bank to take possession, to have legally segregated in the Federal Reserve Book Entry System, or to have segregated within the custodian bank's vault, all securities held as collateral under repurchase agreement transactions. Additionally, procedures have been established by the Fund to monitor, on a daily basis, the market value of each repurchase agreement's collateral to ensure that the value of collateral at least equals the repurchase price to be paid under the repurchase agreement.

The Fund will only enter into repurchase agreements with banks and other recognized financial institutions, such as broker/dealers, which are deemed by the Fund's manager to be creditworthy pursuant to the guidelines and/or standards reviewed or established by the Board of Trustees (the "Trustees"). Risks may arise from the potential inability of counterparties to honor the terms of the repurchase agreement. Accordingly, the Fund could receive less than the repurchase price on the sale of collateral securities. The Fund, along with other affiliated investment companies, may utilize a joint trading account for the purpose of entering into one or more repurchase agreements.

Investment Income, Expenses and Distributions

Interest income and expenses are accrued daily. Bond premium and discount, if applicable, are amortized as required by the Internal Revenue Code, as amended (the "Code"). Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at fair value.

Federal Taxes

It is the Fund's policy to comply with the provisions of the Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of its income. Accordingly, no provision for federal tax is necessary.

When-Issued and Delayed Delivery Transactions

The Fund may engage in when-issued or delayed delivery transactions. The Fund records when-issued securities on the trade date and maintains security positions such that sufficient liquid assets will be available to make payment for the securities purchased. Securities purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis are marked-to-market daily and begin earning interest on the settlement date. Losses may occur on these transactions due to changes in market conditions or the failure of counterparties to perform under the contract.

Futures Contracts

The fund purchases stock index futures contracts to manage cashflows, enhance yield, and to potentially reduce transaction costs. Upon entering into a stock index futures contract with a broker, the Fund is required to deposit in a segregated account a specified amount of cash or U.S. government securities. Futures contracts are valued daily and unrealized gains or losses are recorded in a "variation margin" account. Daily, the Fund receives from or pays to the broker a specified amount of cash based upon changes in the variation margin account. When a contract is closed, the Fund recognizes a realized gain or loss. For the period ended April 30, 2000, the Fund had realized gains on futures contracts of $1,238,197.

Futures contracts have market risks, including the risk that the change in the value of the contract may not correlate with changes in the value of the underlying securities.

At April 30, 2000, the Fund had outstanding futures contracts as set forth below:

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets, liabilities, expenses and revenues reported in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimated.

Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis.

MANAGEMENT FEE AND OTHER TRANSACTIONS WITH AFFILIATES

Management Fee

Federated Investment Management Company, the Fund's manager (the "Manager"), receives for its services an annual management fee equal to 0.40% of the Fund's average daily net assets. Under the terms of a sub-management agreement between the Manager and Northern Trust Quantitative Advisors, Inc. (the "SubManager"), the Sub-Manager receives an annual fee from the Manager equal to 0.035% of the Fund's average daily net assets.

Shareholder Services Fee

Under the terms of a Shareholder Services Agreement with Federated Shareholder Services Company ("FSSC"), the Fund will pay FSSC up to 0.25% of average daily net assets of the Fund for the period. The fee paid to FSSC is used to finance certain services for shareholders and to maintain shareholder accounts. FSSC may voluntarily choose to waive any portion of its fee. FSSC can modify or terminate this voluntary waiver at any time at its sole discretion.

Transfer and Dividend Disbursing Agent Fees and Expenses

Federated Services Company ("FServ"), through its subsidiary FSSC, serves as transfer and dividend disbursing agent for the Fund. The fee paid to FSSC is based on the size, type, and number of accounts and transactions made by shareholders.

Portfolio Accounting Fees

FServ maintains the Fund's accounting records for which it receives a fee. The fee is based on the level of the Fund's average daily net assets for the period, plus out-of-pocket expenses.

SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT

President's Message

Dear Shareholder:

I am pleased to present the Semi-Annual Report for Federated Mini-Cap Fund, a portfolio of Federated Index Trust, which covers the six-month period from November 1, 1999 through April 30, 2000. The report begins with an investment review, followed by the fund's portfolio and its financial statements.

As its name implies, Federated Mini-Cap Fund gives you a highly efficient way to pursue the broad performance of the small-company stock market.1 The fund is managed passively to closely mirror the Russell 2000® Index,2 an unmanaged index consisting of the 2,000 common stocks that fall just below the top 1,000 large- and mid-cap stocks.

During the six-month reporting period, the fund produced a total return of 17.27% for Institutional Shares and 16.71% for Class C Shares.3 Institutional Shares paid dividend income distributions totaling $0.05 per share and capital gains distributions totaling $1.50 per share, while net asset value increased by $0.67. Class C Shares paid capital gains distributions totaling $1.50 per share, while net asset value increased by $0.64. The fund's net assets reached $111.2 million on the last day of the reporting period.

Thank you for putting your money to work in dynamic small-company stocks through the diversification and professional management of Federated Mini-Cap Fund. As always, we invite your comments and suggestions.

Sincerely,

Glen R. Johnson

Glen R. Johnson
President
June 15, 2000

3 Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.

Investment Review

The total returns for the fund's Institutional and Class C Shares for the six months ended April 30, 2000 were 17.27% and 16.71%, respectively.1

The fund's target index, the Russell 2000 Index (the "Index"), had a total return of 18.71% during the reporting period. Share class performance varied from the Index due to transaction costs, administrative expenses and holdings of stock index futures contracts, which are held to enhance fund liquidity. It is important to note that transaction costs for small company stocks are much higher than that for large company stocks due to illiquidity factors, i.e., there are sometimes very few buyers and sellers of small company stocks.

The U.S. stock market rallied strongly in the latter part of 1999, but has been volatile in the early part of 2000. The wide divergence in price appreciation between "new economy" or technology-driven stocks, and "old economy" stocks, which became very apparent in late 1999, was corrected in early 2000 as many technology stock investors began to fear rising interest rates, increasing investor usage of margin debt (leverage), and a general speculation in Internet-related stocks.

Medium and small company stocks outperformed large company stocks during the last six months, making up for some of their lagging performance over the last 2-3 years. Growth-oriented stocks outperformed value-oriented stocks in late 1999, but value stocks have held up relatively well in early 2000 compared to growth stocks, which were more affected by market weakness.

During the last six months, health care, energy and producer durables were among the strongest performing sectors, while integrated oil, consumer staples and financial services were among the worst performing sectors in the Index.

1 Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate, so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.

Notes to Financial Statements

APRIL 30, 2000 (UNAUDITED)

ORGANIZATION

Federated Index Trust (the "Trust") is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act") as an open-end, management investment company. The Trust consists of three portfolios. The financial statements included herein are only those of Federated Mini-Cap Fund (the "Fund"), a diversified portfolio. The financial statements of the other portfolios are presented separately. The assets of each portfolio are segregated and a shareholder's interest is limited to the portfolio in which shares are held. The Fund offers two classes of shares: Institutional Shares and Class C Shares. The investment objective of the Fund is to provide investment results that generally correspond to the aggregate price and dividend performance of approximately 2,000 publicly traded common stocks that are ranked in terms of capitalization below the top 1,000 stocks that comprise the large and mid-range capitalization sector of the United States equity market. This group of stocks is known as the Russell 2000® Index.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. These policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

Investment Valuation

Listed equity securities are valued at the last sale price reported on a national securities exchange. Short-term securities are valued at the prices provided by an independent pricing service. However, short-term securities with remaining maturities of 60 days or less at the time of purchase may be valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair market value.

Repurchase Agreements

It is the policy of the Fund to require the custodian bank to take possession, to have legally segregated in the Federal Reserve Book Entry System, or to have segregated within the custodian bank's vault, all securities held as collateral under repurchase agreement transactions. Additionally, procedures have been established by the Fund to monitor, on a daily basis, the market value of each repurchase agreement's collateral to ensure that the value of collateral at least equals the repurchase price to be paid under the repurchase agreement.

The Fund will only enter into repurchase agreements with banks and other recognized financial institutions, such as broker/dealers, which are deemed by the Fund's manager to be creditworthy pursuant to the guidelines and/or standards reviewed or established by the Board of Trustees (the "Trustees"). Risks may arise from the potential inability of counterparties to honor the terms of the repurchase agreement. Accordingly, the Fund could receive less than the repurchase price on the sale of collateral securities. The Fund, along with other affiliated investment companies, may utilize a joint trading account for the purpose of entering into one or more repurchase agreements.

Investment Income, Expenses and Distributions

Interest income and expenses are accrued daily. Bond premium and discount, if applicable, are amortized as required by the Internal Revenue Code, as amended (the "Code"). Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at fair value. The Fund offers multiple classes of shares, which differ in their respective distribution and service fees. All shareholders bear the common expenses of the Fund based on average daily net assets of each class, without distinction between share classes. Dividends are declared separately for each class. No class has preferential dividend rights; differences in per share dividend rates are generally due to differences in separate class expenses.

Federal Taxes

It is the Fund's policy to comply with the provisions of the Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of its income. Accordingly, no provision for federal tax is necessary. Witholding taxes on foreign interest and dividends have been provided for in accordance with the applicable country's tax rules and rates.

When-Issued and Delayed Delivery Transactions

The Fund may engage in when-issued or delayed delivery transactions. The Fund records when-issued securities on the trade date and maintains security positions such that sufficient liquid assets will be available to make payment for the securities purchased. Securities purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis are marked to market daily and begin earning interest on the settlement date. Losses may occur on these transactions due to changes in market conditions or the failure of counterparties to perform under the contract.

Futures Contracts

The Fund purchases stock index futures contracts to manage cashflows, enhance yield, and to potentially reduce transaction costs. Upon entering into a stock index futures contract with a broker, the Fund is required to deposit in a segregated account a specified amount of cash or U.S. government securities. Futures contracts are valued daily and unrealized gains or losses are recorded in a "variation margin" account. Daily, the Fund receives from or pays to the broker a specified amount of cash based upon changes in the variation margin account. When a contract is closed, the Fund recognizes a realized gain or loss. For the six-month period ended April 30, 2000, the Fund had realized gains on future contracts of $1,952,096. Futures contracts have market risks, including the risk that the change in the value of the contract may not correlate with changes in the value of the underlying securities.

At April 30, 2000, the Fund had outstanding futures contracts as set forth below:

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets, liabilities, expenses and revenues reported in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimated.

Other

Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis.

SHARES OF BENEFICIAL INTEREST

SEMI-ANNUAL REPORT

President's Message

Dear Shareholder:

I am pleased to present the Semi-Annual Report for Federated Max-Cap Fund, a portfolio of Federated Index Trust, which covers the six-month period from November 1, 1999 through April 30, 2000. The report begins with an investment review, followed by the fund's portfolio and its financial statements.

Federated Max-Cap Fund gives you a highly efficient way to pursue the broad performance of the U.S. stock market. The fund is managed passively to closely mirror the Standard & Poor's 500 Index (S&P 500), a classic benchmark of overall stock market performance that includes 500 stocks in industry, transportation, finance and public utilities. Stocks in the fund's portfolio are generally weighted in the same proportions as stocks in the S&P 500.1

During the six-month reporting period, the fund produced a positive total return of 6.81% for Institutional Shares, 6.64% for Institutional Service Shares and 6.26% for Class C Shares.2 Institutional Shares paid dividend income distributions totaling $0.14 per share and capital gains distributions totaling $0.25 per share, while net asset value increased by $1.51. Institutional Service Shares paid dividend income distributions totaling $0.10 per share and capital gains distributions totaling $0.25 per share, while net asset value increased by $1.50. Class C Shares paid dividend income distributions totaling $0.01 per share and capital gains distributions totaling $0.25 per share, while net asset value increased by $1.48. The fund's net assets reached $3.1 billion on the last day of the reporting period.

Thank you for investing your money in the broad long-term growth potential of stocks through the diversification and professional management of Federated Max-Cap Fund. As always, we invite your comments and suggestions.

Sincerely,

Glen R. Johnson

Glen R. Johnson
President
June 15, 2000

1 Federated Max-Cap Fund seeks investment results that correspond to the aggregate price and total return performance of the Standard & Poor's Composite Stock Price Index. "Standard & Poor's," "S&P," "S&P 500," Standard & Poor's 500," and "500" are trademarks of Standard & Poor's Ratings Group (S&P) and have been licensed for use by Federated Securities Corp. The fund is neither affiliated with nor promoted, sponsored, sold, or endorsed by S&P. Its only relationship to the fund is the licensing of the use of the index. This index is unmanaged. Investments cannot be made in an index.

2 Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.

Investment Review

The total returns for the fund's Institutional, Institutional Service, and Class C Shares for the six months ended April 30, 2000 were 6.81%, 6.64% and 6.26%, respectively.1 The fund's target index, the Standard & Poor's 500 Composite Stock Price Index (the "Index"), had a total return of 7.19% during the reporting period. Share class performance varied from the Index due to transaction costs, administrative expenses and holdings of stock index futures contracts, which are held to enhance fund liquidity.

The U.S. stock market rallied strongly in the latter part of 1999, but has been volatile in the early part of 2000. The wide divergence in price appreciation between "new economy" or technology-driven stocks, and "old economy" stocks, which became very apparent in late 1999, was corrected in early 2000 as many technology stock investors began to fear rising interest rates, increasing investor usage of margin debt (leverage) and a general speculation in Internet-related stocks.

Medium and small company stocks outperformed large company stocks during the last six months, making up for some of their lagging performance over the last 2-3 years. Growth-oriented stocks outperformed value-oriented stocks in late 1999, but value stocks have held up relatively well in early 2000 compared to growth stocks, which were more affected by market weakness.

During the last six months, electronic instruments, oil and gas drilling and electronic semi-conductors were among the strongest performing sectors, while life insurance, hotel-motel and containers were among the worst performing sectors in the Index.

1 Past performance is no guarantee of future results. Investment return and principal value will fluctuate, so that an investor's shares, when redeemed, may be worth more or less than their original cost.

Notes to Financial Statements

APRIL 30, 2000 (UNAUDITED)

ORGANIZATION

Federated Index Trust (the "Trust") is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended (the "Act"), as an open-end, management investment company. The Trust consists of three portfolios. The financial statements included herein are only those of Federated Max-Cap Fund (the "Fund"), a diversified portfolio. The financial statements of the other portfolios are presented separately. The assets of each portfolio are segregated and a shareholder's interest is limited to the portfolio in which shares are held. The investment objective of the Fund is to provide investment results that correspond to the aggregate price and dividend performance of publicly-traded common stocks, by duplicating the composition of the Standard & Poor's 500 Composite Stock Price Index.

SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

The following is a summary of significant accounting policies consistently followed by the Fund in the preparation of its financial statements. These policies are in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles.

Investment Valuations

Listed equity securities are valued at the last sale price reported on a national securities exchange. Short-term securities are valued at the prices provided by an independent pricing service. However, short-term securities with remaining maturities of 60 days or less at the time of purchase may be valued at amortized cost, which approximates fair market value.

Repurchase Agreements

It is the policy of the Fund to require the custodian bank to take possession, to have legally segregated in the Federal Reserve Book Entry System, or to have segregated within the custodian bank's vault, all securities held as collateral under repurchase agreement transactions. Additionally, procedures have been established by the Fund to monitor, on a daily basis, the market value of each repurchase agreement's collateral to ensure that the value of collateral at least equals the repurchase price to be paid under the repurchase agreement.

The Fund will only enter into repurchase agreements with banks and other recognized financial institutions, such as broker/dealers, which are deemed by the Fund's manager to be creditworthy pursuant to the guidelines and/or standards reviewed or established by the Board of Trustees (the "Trustees"). Risks may arise from the potential inability of counterparties to honor the terms of the repurchase agreement. Accordingly, the Fund could receive less than the repurchase price on the sale of collateral securities. The Fund, along with other affiliated investment companies, may utilize a joint trading account for the purpose of entering into one or more repurchase agreements.

Investment Income, Expenses and Distributions

Interest income and expenses are accrued daily. Bond premium and discount, if applicable, are amortized as required by the Internal Revenue Code, as amended (the "Code"). Dividend income and distributions to shareholders are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Non-cash dividends included in dividend income, if any, are recorded at fair value. The Fund offers multiple classes of shares, which differ in their respective distribution and service fees. All shareholders bear the common expenses of the Fund based on average daily net assets of each class, without distinction between share classes. Dividends are declared separately for each class. No class has preferential dividend rights; differences in per share dividend rates are generally due to differences in separate class expenses.

Federal Taxes

It is the Fund's policy to comply with the provisions of the Code applicable to regulated investment companies and to distribute to shareholders each year substantially all of its income. Accordingly, no provision for federal tax is necessary.

When-Issued and Delayed Delivery Transactions

The Fund may engage in when-issued or delayed delivery transactions. The Fund records when-issued securities on the trade date and maintains security positions such that sufficient liquid assets will be available to make payment for the securities purchased. Securities purchased on a when-issued or delayed delivery basis are marked-to-market daily and begin earning interest on the settlement date. Losses may occur on these transactions due to changes in market conditions or the failure of counterparties to perform under the contract.

Futures Contracts

The Fund purchases stock index futures contracts to manage cash flows, enhance yield, and to potentially reduce transaction costs. Upon entering into a stock index futures contract with a broker, the Fund is required to deposit in a segregated account a specified amount of cash or U.S. government securities. Futures contracts are valued daily and unrealized gains or losses are recorded in a "variation margin" account. Daily, the Fund receives from or pays to the broker a specified amount of cash based upon changes in the variation margin account. When a contract is closed, the Fund recognizes a realized gain or loss. For the period ended April 30, 2000, the Fund had realized losses on futures contracts of $4,083,142.

Futures contracts have market risks, including the risk that the change in the value of the contract may not correlate with changes in the value of the underlying securities. At April 30, 2000, the Fund had outstanding futures contracts as set forth below:

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts of assets, liabilities, expenses and revenues reported in the financial statements. Actual results could differ from those estimated.

Other

Investment transactions are accounted for on a trade date basis.
