Hi Deepali529,
what do you mean with "time taken"?
in https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/Splunk/6.5.0/Indexer/Setupmultipleindexes you can find all the information to create an index by web, CLI or configuration files.
Bye.

Hi Deepali529,
it's immediate if you use web or CLI, you have to restart Splunk if you modify indexes.conf file.
You can immediately see your indexes in your $SPLUNK_DB that usually (default) in Linux is $SPLUNK_HOME/var/lib/splunk.
Bye.
