Windows: How to get fs_notification source type data into Splunk?

Current configuration of inputs.conf

[fschange:$SPLUNK_HOME\var\log]
signedaudit = false
index=Dksoni

How much time it would take to get this source type data into splunk ?

I'm not sure what you mean with how much time it should take?
You mean for events getting ingested into splunk? Is it not working at all?
Have you restarted the UF?

the fschange function has been deprecated btw. See:
