Securities Fund

The Fund

A LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN AND CEO

Dear Shareholder:

We are pleased to present this semiannual report for Dreyfus Inflation Adjusted Securities Fund, covering the six-month period from August 1, 2009, through January 31, 2010.

Fixed-income markets during the reporting period were highlighted by a broad-based rebound in security prices, as global credit markets healed and a global economic recovery gained momentum.The “risk trade,” in which assets are shifted from conservative to more aggressive investments to take advantage of improving market conditions, profited the most in this more constructive environment. Consequently, the high yield and emerging market sovereign bond markets ranked among the fixed-income market leaders, while nominal U.S.Treasury securities and other traditional safe havens continued to lag on a relative performance basis.

We believe investors probably will need to be more selective in 2010 as the risk trade runs its course. Instead, investment success over the foreseeable future is more likely to be delivered through a selective security evaluation process that favors high-quality, actively managed investments. Of course, your financial advisor is best suited to help you navigate through this developing economic cycle and recommend appropriate ways for you to seek potential opportunities while maintaining your future goals within the appropriate level of risk you’re willing to accept.

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

Thank you for your continued confidence and support.

Jonathan R. Baum
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
The Dreyfus Corporation

DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

For the period of August 1, 2009, through January 31, 2010, as provided by Robert Bayston, Portfolio Manager

Fund and Market Performance Overview

For the six-month period ended January 31, 2010, Dreyfus Inflation Adjusted Securities Fund’s Institutional shares produced a total return of 6.51%, and the fund’s Investor shares returned 6.36%.¹In comparison, the fund’s benchmark, the Barclays Capital U.S. Treasury Inflation Protected Securities Index (the “Index”), produced a total return of 6.51% for the same period.²

Treasury Inflation Protected Securities (“TIPS”) fared relatively well over the reporting period when valuations rebounded from relatively low levels in the wake of a severe recession and banking crisis. Favorable supply-and-demand dynamics also supported relative performance in the TIPS market compared to nominal U.S. Treasury securities. The fund participated fully in the market rally, producing returns that were roughly in line with its benchmark.

The Fund’s Investment Approach

The fund seeks returns that exceed the rate of inflation.To pursue this goal, the fund normally invests at least 80% of its assets in inflation-indexed securities, which are fixed-income securities designed to protect investors from a loss of value due to inflation by periodically adjusting their principal and/or coupon according to the rate of inflation.

The fund invests primarily in high-quality, U.S. dollar-denominated, inflation-indexed securities. To a limited extent, the fund may invest in foreign currency-denominated, inflation-protected securities and other fixed-income securities not adjusted for inflation, including U.S. government bonds and notes, corporate bonds, mortgage-related securities and asset-backed securities. The fund seeks to keep its average effective duration between two and 10 years, and the fund may invest in securities of any maturity without restriction.

The Fund 3

DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE (continued)

TIPS Rallied from Low Valuations

The reporting period began well after the wake of a global banking crisis and deep recession that had produced steep declines among the various fixed income markets and other long-term asset classes. Investor sentiment continued to improve as the stimulative efforts put forth by the Federal Reserve and U.S. government gained traction. The recovery was particularly impressive for high yield bonds, investment-grade corporate bonds, emerging market debt securities and certain mortgage- and asset-backed securities.

As a result, nominal U.S. Treasury securities gave back some of their earlier gains when investors turned to higher yielding fixed-income investments, but TIPS rallied as investors began to speculate that historically low interest rates and other economic stimuli might spark an acceleration of inflation sometime down the road. The rally was especially pronounced among TIPS with maturities of 10 years or less.

In addition, the TIPS market was supported by relatively low issuance volumes during the reporting period. Intensifying investor demand and a limited supply of newly issued TIPS put additional upward pressure on prices.

Security Selections Supported Relative Performance

The fund benefited early in the reporting period from a focus on TIPS that had fallen to low valuations during the recession.As these securities reached fuller valuations, we shifted our strategy to emphasize maturity ranges that we believed would benefit most from revived inflation concerns as the U.S. economy recovered. Our analyses led us to focus on TIPS with 10-year maturities, which gained significantly more value than their longer term counterparts.

In contrast, tactical management of the fund’s average duration had relatively little impact on performance during the reporting period. We mostly maintained the fund’s average duration in a range that was

in line with industry averages, but we occasionally moved to a modestly longer-than-average position to pursue opportunities stemming from market volatility.

Positioned for a Changing Market Environment

As of January 31, TIPS valuations have reached levels we consider somewhat richly valued. In addition, the U.S. Department of the Treasury has announced plans to increase the frequency and amount of TIPS issuance, including a new series of 30-year securities. Meanwhile, the Fed has repeatedly indicated that it intends to leave short-term interest rates at today’s low levels “for an extended period.”Therefore, we currently intend to maintain the fund’s generally neutral average duration, which should enable us to focus more on security selection opportunities as market conditions evolve. In our view, these are prudent strategies as a sub-par economic recovery continues to fuel volatility in the U.S. bond market.

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 Inflation Adjusted Securities Fund from August 1, 2009 to January 31, 2010. 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 January 31, 2010
	Investor Shares	Institutional Shares
Expenses paid per $1,000^†	$ 3.38	$ 1.98
Ending value (after expenses)	$1,063.60	$1,065.10

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 January 31, 2010
	Investor Shares	Institutional Shares
Expenses paid per $1,000^†	$ 3.31	$ 1.94
Ending value (after expenses)	$1,021.93	$1,023.29

† Expenses are equal to the fund’s annualized expense ratio of .65% for Investor shares and .38% for Institutional shares, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184/365 (to reflect the one-half year period).

Investments for which quoted bid prices are readily available and are representative of the bid side of the market in the judgment of the Service are valued at the mean between the quoted bid prices (as obtained by the Service from dealers in such securities) and asked prices (as calculated by the Service based upon its evaluation of the market for such securities). Other investments (which constitute a majority of the portfolio securities) are valued as determined by the Service, based on methods which include consideration of: yields or prices of securities of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type; indications as to values from dealers; and general market conditions. Restricted securities, as well as securities or other assets for which recent market quotations are not readily available, and are not valued by a pricing service approved by the Board of Directors, or are determined by the fund not to reflect accurately fair value, are valued at fair value as determined in good faith under the direction of the Board of Directors. The factors that may be considered when fair valuing a security include 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. Short-term investments, excluding U.S.Treasury Bills, are carried at amortized

cost, which approximates value. Registered investment companies that are not traded on an exchange are valued at their net asset value. Financial futures and options, which are traded on an exchange, are valued at the last sales price on the securities exchange on which such securities are primarily traded or at the last sales price on the national securities market on each business day. Options traded over-the-counter are valued at the mean between the bid and asked price.

The fair value of a financial instrument is the amount that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (i.e. the exit price). GAAP establishes a fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs of valuation techniques used to measure fair value.This hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements).

Additionally, GAAP provides guidance on determining whether the volume and activity in a market has decreased significantly and whether such a decrease in activity results in transactions that are not orderly. GAAP requires enhanced disclosures around valuation inputs and techniques used during annual and interim periods.

Various inputs are used in determining the value of the fund’s investments relating to fair value measurements.These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

Level 1—unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments.

Level 2—other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).

Level 3—significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

The following is a summary of the inputs used as of January 31, 2010 in valuing the fund’s investments:

In January 2010, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2010-06 “Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements”. ASU 2010-06 will require reporting entities to make new disclosures about amounts and reasons for significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements as well as inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecur-ring fair value measurements that fall in either Level 2 or Level 3, and information on purchases, sales, issuances and settlements on a gross basis in the reconciliation of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. The new and revised disclosures are required to be implemented for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2009 except for the disclosures surrounding purchases, sales, issuances and settlements on a gross basis in the reconciliation of Level 3 fair value measurements, which are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010. Management is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU No. 2010-06 may have on the fund’s financial statement disclosures.

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

agement fees. For financial reporting purposes, the fund includes net earnings credits as an expense offset in the Statement of Operations.

Pursuant to a securities lending agreement with The Bank of New York Mellon, a subsidiary of BNY Mellon and an affiliate of Dreyfus, 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. Collateral equivalent to at least 100% of the market value of securities on loan is maintained at all times. Collateral is either in the form of cash, which can be invested in certain money market mutual funds managed by the Manager, U.S. Government and Agency securities or letters of credit.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. During the period ended January 31, 2010, The Bank of New York Mellon earned $3,811 from lending portfolio securities, pursuant to the securities lending agreement.

(c) Affiliated issuers: Investments in other investment companies advised by the Manager are defined as “affiliated” in the Act.

(d) Dividends to shareholders: It is the policy of the fund to declare dividends daily from investment income-net. Such dividends are paid monthly. Dividends from net realized capital gains, 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 gains 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 GAAP.

(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.

As of and during the period ended January 31, 2010, the fund did not have any liabilities for any uncertain tax positions.The fund recognizes interest and penalties, if any, related to uncertain tax positions as income tax expense in the Statement of Operations. During the period, the fund did not incur any interest or penalties.

Each of the tax years in the three-year period ended July 31, 2009 remains subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state taxing authorities.

The fund has an unused capital loss carryover of $47,768 available for federal income tax purposes to be applied against future net securities profits, if any, realized subsequent to July 31, 2009. If not applied, the carryover expires in fiscal 2017.

The tax character of distributions paid to shareholders during the fiscal year ended July 31, 2009 was as follows: ordinary income $940,645. The tax character of current year distributions will be determined at the end of the current fiscal year.

NOTE 2—Bank Lines of Credit:

The fund participates with other Dreyfus-managed funds in a $225 million unsecured credit facility led by Citibank, N.A. and a $300 million unsecured credit facility provided by The Bank of New York Mellon (each, a “Facility”), each to be utilized primarily for temporary or emergency purposes, including the financing of redemptions. In connection therewith, the fund has agreed to pay its pro rata portion of commitment fees for each Facility. Interest is charged to the fund based on rates determined pursuant to the terms of the respective Facility at the time of borrowing.

The average amount of borrowings outstanding under the Facilities during the period ended January 31, 2010, was approximately $24,500 with a related weighted average annualized interest rate of 1.40%.

NOTE 3—Management Fee and Other Transactions With Affiliates:

(a) Pursuant to a management agreement (“Agreement”) with the Manager, the management fee is computed at the annual rate of .30% of the value of the fund’s average daily net assets and is payable monthly. The Manager had undertaken from August 1, 2009 through December 1, 2009, that if, the aggregate expenses of the fund (exclusive of taxes, brokerage fees, interest expense, commitment fees on borrowings, shareholder services plan fees and extraordinary expenses) exceeded an annual rate of .30% of the value of the fund’s average daily net assets, the fund may deduct from the payment to be made to the Manager under the Agreement, or the Manager would bear, such excess expense. The reduction in management fee, pursuant to the undertaking, amounted to $46,265 during the period ended January 31, 2010.

(b) Under the Investor Shares Shareholder Services Plan, the fund pays the Distributor at an annual rate of .25% of the value of Investor Shares average daily net assets for the provision of certain services. 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.

A LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN AND CEO

Dear Shareholder:

We are pleased to present this semiannual report for Dreyfus Intermediate Term Income Fund,covering the six-month period from August 1,2009, through January 31, 2010.

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

Thank you for your continued confidence and support.

Jonathan R. Baum
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
The Dreyfus Corporation

DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

For the period of August 1, 2009, through January 31, 2010, as provided by Kent Wosepka, Portfolio Manager

Fund and Market Performance Overview

For the six-month period ended January 31, 2010, Dreyfus Intermediate Term Income Fund’s Class A shares produced a total return of 7.88%, Class B shares returned 7.64%, Class C shares returned 7.45% and Class I shares returned 8.03%.¹In comparison, the fund’s benchmark, the Barclays Capital U.S. Aggregate Bond Index, achieved a total return of 3.87% for the same period.²

Higher yielding sectors of the U.S. bond market continued to rally during the reporting period as credit markets thawed and the U.S. economy gradually recovered.The fund produced higher returns than its benchmark over the reporting period, primarily due to its overweight exposure to investment-grade corporate bonds, high yield bonds, commercial mortgages and asset-backed securities.

The Fund’s Investment Approach

The fund seeks to maximize total return, consisting of capital appreciation and current income.To pursue this goal, the fund normally invests at least 80% of its assets in fixed-income securities of U.S. and foreign issuers rated at least investment grade or the unrated equivalent as determined by Dreyfus. These securities include: U.S. government bonds and notes, corporate bonds, municipal bonds, convertible securities, preferred stocks, inflation-indexed securities, asset-backed securities, mortgage-related securities and foreign bonds. Typically, the fund can be expected to have an average effective maturity ranging from five to 10 years, and an average effective duration ranging between three and eight years. For additional yield, the fund may invest up to 20% of its assets in fixed-income securities rated below investment grade.

The Fund 3

DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE (continued)

Bond Market Rallied as the U.S. Economy Recovered

The reporting period began well after the wake of a global banking crisis and deep recession that had produced steep declines among the various fixed income markets and other long-term asset classes.

Investor sentiment continued to improve as the stimulative efforts put forth by the Federal Reserve and U.S. government gained traction. The recovery was particularly impressive for high yield bonds, investment-grade corporate bonds, emerging market debt securities and certain mortgage- and asset-backed securities.Within the U.S.Treasury market, short- and intermediate-term bonds generally rallied while long-term bonds lost a modest degree of value, on average, due to a revival of concerns regarding potential inflation down the road.

Sector Allocation Strategy Produced Strong Results

The fund benefited in this environment from its underweight exposure to U.S.Treasury securities and overweight positions in investment-grade corporate bonds, high yield bonds, commercial mortgage-backed securities and asset-backed securities.The fund’s holdings in the investment-grade corporate sector were broadly diversified across industry groups to mitigate some of the risk inherent in an emphasis on bonds rated “triple-B,” the lowest and top-performing investment-grade credit tier during the reporting period. The fund received particularly strong results from bonds issued by electric utilities and recovering banks.The fund’s holdings of high yield bonds emphasized issuers in non-cyclical industry groups, including the health care and utilities industry sectors. We focused on high yield issuers that we believed had sound underlying assets.The fund’s positions in commercial mortgages focused on AAA-rated securities that were independently evaluated by our credit analysts. The fund also benefited from high-quality asset-backed securities backed by automobile loans and credit card receivables.

In order to balance an underweight position in U.S. Treasury securities, we generally maintained the fund’s average duration in a range that was slightly longer than that of the benchmark. In addition, the

fund benefited from a mild emphasis on bonds with maturities in the five-year range, where the rally was relatively robust.

Maintaining a Disciplined Approach to Security Selection

As of the reporting period’s end, we believe that higher yielding bonds have room for further gains while a sub-par U.S. economic recovery continues to gain momentum. However, we are aware that the bulk of the bond market rally probably is behind us, and we expect the Fed to pare back some of its remedial programs in 2010.Therefore, we believe that security selection will become a more critical determinant of fund performance over the foreseeable future, an environment to which our research-intensive approach may be particularly well suited. As market conditions change, we are prepared to adjust our strategies, including potentially reducing the fund’s exposure to higher-yielding bonds in favor of U.S.Treasury securities and U.S. government agency securities.

1	Total return includes reinvestment of dividends and any capital gains paid, and does not take into
	consideration the maximum initial sales charge in the case of Class A shares, or the applicable
	contingent deferred sales charges imposed on redemptions in the case of Class B and Class C
	shares. Had these charges been reflected, returns would have been lower. Past performance is no
	guarantee of future results. Share price, yield and investment return fluctuate such that upon
	redemption, fund shares may be worth more or less than their original cost. Return figures
	provided for the fund’s Class A shares and Class I shares reflect the absorption of certain fund
	expenses by The Dreyfus Corporation, pursuant to an undertaking in effect through December
	31, 2009, at which time it was terminated. Had these expenses not been absorbed, the fund’s
	Class A and Class I shares’ returns would have been lower.
2	SOURCE: LIPPER INC. — Reflects reinvestment of dividends and, where applicable, capital

	10 years. Investors cannot invest directly in any index.

UNDERSTANDING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES (Unaudited)

Review your fund’s expenses

The table below shows the expenses you would have paid on a $1,000 investment in Dreyfus Intermediate Term Income Fund from August 1, 2009 to January 31, 2010. 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 January 31, 2010
	Class A	Class B	Class C	Class I
Expenses paid per $1,000^†	$ 4.51	$ 7.12	$ 8.63	$ 2.94
Ending value (after expenses)	$1,078.80	$1,076.40	$1,074.50	$1,080.30

COMPARING YOUR FUND’S EXPENSES

WITH THOSE OF OTHER FUNDS (Unaudited)

Using the SEC’s method to compare expenses


Expenses and Value of a $1,000 Investment
assuming a hypothetical 5% annualized return for the six months ended January 31, 2010
	Class A	Class B	Class C	Class I
Expenses paid per $1,000^†	$ 4.38	$ 6.92	$ 8.39	$ 2.85
Ending value (after expenses)	$1,020.87	$1,018.35	$1,016.89	$1,022.38

Expenses are equal to the fund’s annualized expense ratio of .86% for Class A, 1.36% for Class B, 1.65% for Class C and .56% for Class I, multiplied by the average account value over the period, multiplied by 184/365 (to reflect the one-half year period).

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

NOTE 1—Significant Accounting Policies:

Dreyfus Intermediate Term Income Fund (the “fund”) is a separate diversified series of Dreyfus Investment Grade 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 seeks to maximize total return, consisting of capital appreciation and current income. The Dreyfus Corporation (the “Manager” or “Dreyfus”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation (“BNY Mellon”), serves as the fund’s investment adviser.

As of the close of business on December 17, 2008, pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Reorganization previously approved by the fund’s Board of Directors, all of the assets, subject to the liabilities, of Dreyfus Premier Limited Term Income Fund (“Limited Term Income”) were transferred to the fund in exchange for corresponding class of shares of Common Stock of the fund of equal value. Shareholders of Class A, Class B and Class C shares of Limited Term Income received Class A shares of the fund and shareholders of Class I shares of Limited Term Income received Class I shares of the fund, in each case in an amount equal to the aggregate net asset value of their investment in Limited Term Income at the time of the exchange.The net asset value of the fund’s shares on the close of business December 17, 2008, after the reorganization was $11.09 for Class A, $11.08 for Class I, and a total of 1,676,218 Class A shares and 536,798 Class I shares, representing net assets of $24,536,722 (including $2,679,073 net unrealized depreciation on investments) were issued to shareholders of Limited Term Income in the exchange.The exchange was a tax-free event to the Limited Term Income shareholders.

MBSC Securities Corporation (the “Distributor”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Manager, is the distributor of the fund’s shares. The fund is authorized to issue 1.2 billion shares of $.001 par value Common Stock.The fund currently offers four classes of shares: Class A (500 million shares authorized), Class B (100 million shares autho-

rized), Class C (100 million shares authorized) and Class I (500 million shares authorized). Class A shares are subject to a sales charge imposed at the time of purchase. Class B shares are subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) imposed on Class B share redemptions made within six years of purchase and automatically convert to Class A shares after six years.The fund does not offer Class B shares, except in connection with dividend reinvestment and permitted exchanges of Class B shares. Class C shares are subject to a CDSC imposed on Class C shares redeemed within one year of purchase. Class I shares are sold at net asset value per share only to institutional investors. Other differences between the classes include the services offered to and the expenses borne by each class, the allocation of certain transfer agency costs and certain voting rights. Income, expenses (other than expenses attributable to a specific class), and realized and unrealized gains or losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets.

The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) has become the exclusive reference of authoritative U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) recognized by the FASB to be applied by nongovernmental entities. Rules and interpretive releases of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) under authority of federal laws are also sources of authoritative GAAP for SEC registrants. The ASC has superseded all existing non-SEC accounting and reporting standards. The fund’s financial statements are prepared in accordance with GAAP, which may require the use of management estimates and assumptions.Actual results could differ from those estimates.

The Company enters into contracts that contain a variety of indemnifications. The fund’s maximum exposure under these arrangements

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)

is unknown.The fund does not anticipate recognizing any loss related to these arrangements.

(a) Portfolio valuation: Investments in securities, excluding short-term investments (other than U.S. Treasury Bills), financial futures, options transactions, swap transactions and forward foreign currency exchange contracts (“forward contracts”) are valued each business day by an independent pricing service (the “Service”) approved by the Board of Directors. Investments for which quoted bid prices are readily available and are representative of the bid side of the market in the judgment of the Service are valued at the mean between the quoted bid prices (as obtained by the Service from dealers in such securities) and asked prices (as calculated by the Service based upon its evaluation of the market for such securities). Other investments (which constitute a majority of the portfolio securities) are valued as determined by the Service, based on methods which include consideration of: yields or prices of securities of comparable quality, coupon, maturity and type; indications as to values from dealers; and general market conditions. Restricted securities, as well as securities or other assets for which recent market quotations are not readily available, that are not valued by a pricing service approved by the Board of Directors, or are determined by the fund not to reflect accurately fair value, are valued at fair value as determined in good faith under the direction of the Board of Directors.The factors that may be considered when fair valuing a security include 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. Short-term investments, excluding U.S.Treasury Bills, are carried at amortized cost, which approximates value. Registered investment companies that are not traded on an exchange are valued at their net asset value. Financial futures and options, which are traded on an exchange, are valued at the last sales price on the securities exchange on which such securities are primarily traded or at the last sales price on the national securities market on each business day. Options traded over-

the-counter are valued at the mean between the bid and the asked price. Investments in swap transactions are valued each business day by an independent pricing service approved by the Board of Directors. Swaps are valued by the service by using a swap pricing model which incorporates among other factors, default probabilities, recovery rates, credit curves of the underlying issuer and swap spreads on interest rates. Investments denominated in foreign currencies are translated to U.S. dollars at the prevailing rates of exchange. Forward contracts are valued at the forward rate.

Various inputs are used in determining the value of the fund’s investments relating to fair value measurements. These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

Level 1—unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments.

Level 2—other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).

Level 3—significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).

The Fund 45

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

The following is a summary of the inputs used as of January 31, 2010 in valuing the fund’s investments:

† Other financial instruments include derivative instruments, such as futures, forward foreign currency

exchange contracts, swap contracts and options contracts.Amounts shown represent unrealized

appreciation (depreciation), or in the case of options, market value at period end.

The new and revised disclosures are required to be implemented for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2009 except for the disclosures surrounding purchases, sales, issuances and settlements on a gross basis in the reconciliation of Level 3 fair value measurements, which are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010. Management is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU No. 2010-06 may have on the fund’s financial statement disclosures.

(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 of foreign currencies, currency gains or losses realized on securities transactions between trade and settlement date, 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 resulting from changes in exchange rates. Foreign currency gains and losses on investments 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 gains and losses from securities transactions are recorded on the identified cost basis. Dividend income is recognized on the ex-dividend date and interest income, including, where applicable, accretion of discount and amortization of premium on investments, is recognized on the accrual basis.

The fund has arrangements with the custodian and cash management bank whereby the fund may receive earnings credits when positive cash balances are maintained, which are used to offset custody and cash management fees. For financial reporting purposes, the fund includes net earnings credits as an expense offset in the Statement of Operations.

The Fund 47

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)

Pursuant to a securities lending agreement with The Bank of NewYork Mellon, a subsidiary of BNY Mellon and an affiliate of Dreyfus, 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. Collateral equivalent to at least 100% of the market value of securities on loan is maintained at all times. Collateral is either in the form of cash, which can be invested in certain money market mutual funds managed by the Manager, U.S. Government and Agency securities or letters of credit.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. During the period ended January 31, 2010,The Bank of New York Mellon earned $25,030 from lending portfolio securities, pursuant to the securities lending agreement.

(d) Affiliated issuers: Investments in other investment companies advised by the Manager are defined as “affiliated” in the Act.

(e) Dividends to shareholders: It is the policy of the fund to declare dividends daily from investment income-net. Such dividends are paid monthly. Dividends from net realized capital gains, 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 gains 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 GAAP.

(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.

Each of the tax years in the three-year period ended July 31, 2009 remains subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state taxing authorities.

The fund has an unused capital loss carryover of $85,393,312 available for federal income tax purposes to be applied against future net securities profits, if any, realized subsequent to July 31, 2009. If not applied, $8,440,328 of the carryover expires in fiscal 2011, $7,653,528 expires in fiscal 2012, $19,091,268 expires in fiscal 2013, $4,661,252 expires in fiscal 2014, $11,616,326 expires in fiscal 2015, $635,541 expires in fiscal 2016 and $33,295,069 expires in fiscal 2017. Based on certain provisions in the Code, some of these losses acquired from fund mergers are subject to an annual limitation.

The tax character of distributions paid to shareholders during the fiscal year ended July 31, 2009 was as follows: ordinary income $59,509,754. The tax character of current year distributions will be determined at the end of the current fiscal year.

NOTE 3—Management Fee and Other Transactions With Affiliates:

(a) Pursuant to a management agreement (“Agreement”) with the Manager, the management fee is computed at the annual rate of .45% of the value of the fund’s average daily net assets and is payable monthly.

The Manager had agreed to waive receipt of its fees and/or assume the expenses of the fund from August 1, 2009 to December 31, 2009, so that the total annual operating expenses of Class A and Class I shares (excluding taxes, interest, brokerage commissions, commitment fees on borrowings and extraordinary expenses) did not exceed .85% for Class A and .53% for Class I, respectively. The reduction in expenses, pursuant to the undertaking, amounted to $179,858 during the period ended January 31, 2010.

During the period ended January 31, 2010, the Distributor retained $5,063 from commissions earned on sales of the fund’s Class A shares and $5,599 and $7,054 from CDSCs on redemptions of the fund’s Class B and Class C shares, respectively.

(b) Under the Distribution Plan (the “Plan”) adopted pursuant to Rule 12b-1 under the Act, Class B and Class C shares pay the Distributor for distributing their shares at an annual rate of .50% of the value of the average daily net assets of Class B shares and .75% of the value of the average daily net assets of Class C shares. During the period ended January 31, 2010, Class B and Class C shares were charged $42,023 and $195,816, respectively, pursuant to the Plan.

(c) Under the Shareholder Services Plan, Class A, Class B and Class C shares pay the Distributor at an annual rate of .25% of the value of their average daily net assets for the provision of certain services.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

The fund adopted the provisions of ASC Topic 815 “Derivatives and Hedging” which requires qualitative disclosures about objectives and strategies for using derivatives, quantitative disclosures about fair value amounts of gains and losses on derivative instruments and disclosures about credit-risk-related contingent features in derivative agreements. The disclosure requirements distinguish between derivatives, which are accounted for as “hedges” and those that do not qualify for hedge accounting. Because investment companies value their derivatives at fair value and recognize changes in fair value through the Statement

of Operations, they do not qualify for such accounting. Accordingly, even though a fund’s investments in derivatives may represent economic hedges, they are considered to be non-hedge transactions for purposes of this disclosure.The following tables show the fund’s exposure to different types of market risk as it relates to the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and the Statement of Operations, respectively.

Mortgage Dollar Rolls: A mortgage dollar roll transaction involves a sale by the fund of mortgage related securities that it holds with an agreement by the fund to repurchase similar securities at an agreed upon price and date.The securities purchased will bear the same interest rate as those sold, but generally will be collateralized by pools of mortgages with different prepayment histories than those securities sold.

Futures Contracts: In the normal course of pursuing its investment objective, the fund is exposed to market risk, including interest rate risk, as a result of changes in value of underlying financial instruments.

The fund invests in financial futures contracts in order to manage its exposure to or protect against changes in the market. A futures contract represents a commitment for the future purchase or a sale of an asset at a specified date. Upon entering into such contracts, 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. Accordingly, variation margin payments are received or made to reflect daily unrealized gains or losses which are recorded in the Statement of Operations. Futures contracts are valued daily at the last sales price established by the Board of Trade or exchange upon which they are traded. When the contracts are closed, the fund recognizes a realized gain or loss. There is minimal counterparty credit risk to the fund with futures, since futures are exchange traded and the exchange’s clearinghouse, as counterparty to all exchange traded futures, guarantees the futures against default. Contracts open at January 31, 2010 are set forth in the Statement of Financial Futures.

Options: A call option gives the purchaser of the option the right (but not the obligation) to buy, and obligates the writer to sell, the underlying security or securities at the exercise price at any time during the option period, or at a specified date. Conversely, a put option gives the purchaser of the option the right (but not the obligation) to sell, and obligates the writer to buy the underlying security or securities at the exercise price at any time during the option period, or at a specified date.The fund may purchase and write (sell) put and call options primarily to hedge against changes in security prices, securities that the fund intends to purchase, or against fluctuations in value caused by changes in prevailing market interest rates or other market conditions.

The Fund 55

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)

lying financial instrument decreases between the date the option is written and the date on which the option is terminated. Generally, the fund incurs a loss, if the price of the financial instrument increases between those dates.

As a writer of put options, the fund receives a premium at the outset and then bears the market risk of unfavorable changes in the price of the financial instrument underlying the option. Generally, the fund realizes a gain, to the extent of the premium, if the price of the underlying financial instrument increases between the date the option is written and the date on which the option is terminated. Generally, the fund incurs a loss, if the price of the financial instrument decreases between those dates. As a writer of an option, the fund may have no control over whether the underlying securities may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and as a result bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the security underlying the written option. One risk of holding a put or a call option is that if the option is not sold or exercised prior to its expiration, it becomes worthless. However, this risk is limited to the premium paid by the fund. Upon the expiration or closing of the option transaction, a gain or loss is reported in the Statement of Operations.

The following summarizes the fund’s call/put options written for the period ended January 31, 2010:

Forward Foreign Currency Exchange Contracts: The fund enters into forward contracts in order to hedge its exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates on its foreign portfolio holdings, to settle foreign currency transactions or as a part of its investment strat-egy.When executing forward 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 contracts, the fund incurs 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 contracts, the fund incurs 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 exposed to foreign currency risk as a result of changes in value of underlying financial instruments.The fund is also exposed to credit risk associated with counterparty nonperformance on these forward contracts, which is typically limited to the unrealized gain on each open contract.The following summarizes open forward contracts at January 31, 2010:

Swaps: The fund enters into swap agreements to exchange the interest rate on, or return generated by, one nominal instrument for the return generated by another nominal instrument.The fund enters into these agreements to hedge certain market or interest rate risks, to manage the interest rate sensitivity (sometimes called duration) of fixed income securities, to provide a substitute for purchasing or selling particular securities or to increase potential returns.

The fund accrues for the interim payments on swap contracts on a daily basis, with the net amount recorded within unrealized appreciation (depreciation) on swap contracts in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities. Once the interim payments are settled in cash, the net amount is recorded as realized gain (loss) on swaps, in addition to realized gain (loss) recorded upon the termination of swaps contracts in the Statement of Operations. Upfront payments made and/or received

by the fund, are recorded as an asset and/or liability in the Statement of Assets and Liabilities and are recorded as a realized gain or loss ratably over the contract’s term/event with the exception of forward starting interest rate swaps which are recorded as realized gains or losses on the termination date. Fluctuations in the value of swap contracts are recorded for financial statement purposes as unrealized appreciation or depreciation on swap transactions.

Credit Default Swaps: Credit default swaps involve commitments to pay a fixed interest rate in exchange for payment if a credit event affecting a third party (the referenced company, obligation or index occurs. Credit events may include a failure to pay interest or principal, bankruptcy, or restructuring.The fund enters into these agreements to manage its exposure to the market or certain sectors of the market, to reduce its risk exposure to defaults of corporate and sovereign issuers, or to create exposure to corporate or sovereign issuers to which it is not otherwise exposed. For those credit default swaps in which the fund is paying a fixed rate, the fund is buying credit protection on the instrument. In the event of a credit event, the fund would receive the full notional amount for the reference obligation. For those credit default swaps in which the fund is receiving a fixed rate, the fund is selling credit protection on the underlying instrument.The maximum payouts for these contracts are limited to the notional amount of each swap. Credit default swaps may involve greater risks than if the fund had invested in the reference obligation directly and are subject to general market risk, liquidity risk, counterparty risk and credit risk.

The maximum potential amount of future payments (undiscounted) that a fund as a seller of protection could be required to make under a credit default swap agreement would be an amount equal to the notional amount of the agreement which may exceed the amount of unrealized appreciation or depreciation reflected on the Statement of Assets and Liabilities.Notional amounts of all credit default swap agreements are disclosed in the following chart, which summarizes open credit default

The Fund 59

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) (continued)

swaps on corporate issues entered into by the fund. These potential amounts would be partially offset by any recovery values of the respective referenced obligations, underlying securities comprising the referenced index, upfront payments received upon entering into the agreement, or net amounts received from the settlement of buy protection credit default swap agreements entered into by the fund for the same referenced entity or entities.The following summarizes open credit default swaps entered into by the fund at January 31, 2010:

A LETTER FROM THE CHAIRMAN AND CEO

Dear Shareholder:

We are pleased to present this semiannual report for Dreyfus Short Term Income Fund, covering the six-month period from August 1, 2009, through January 31, 2010.

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

Thank you for your continued confidence and support.

Jonathan R. Baum
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
The Dreyfus Corporation
February 16, 2010

DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE

For the period of August 1, 2009, through January 31, 2010, as provided by David Bowser, CFA, and Peter Vaream, Portfolio Managers

Fund and Market Performance Overview

For the six-month period ended January 31, 2010, Dreyfus Short Term Income Fund’s Class B shares produced a total return of 5.03%, Class D shares produced a total return of 5.38% and Class P shares produced a total return of 5.49%.¹In comparison, the fund’s benchmark, the BofA Merrill Lynch 1-5 Year Corporate/Government Index (the “Index”), achieved a total return of 3.01% for the same period.²

The Fund’s Investment Approach

The fund seeks to maximize total returns consisting of capital appreciation and current income.To pursue this goal, the fund invests at least 80% of its assets in fixed-income securities of U.S. or foreign issuers rated investment grade or the unrated equivalent as determined by Dreyfus. This may include U.S. government bonds and notes, corporate bonds, municipal bonds, convertible securities, preferred stocks, inflation-indexed securities, asset-backed securities, mortgage-related securities (including CMOs) and foreign bonds. For additional yield, the fund may invest up to 20% of its assets in fixed-income securities rated below investment grade (“high yield” or “junk” bonds). Typically, the fund’s portfolio can be expected to have an average effective maturity and an average effective duration of three years or less.

The Fund 3

DISCUSSION OF FUND PERFORMANCE (continued)

Bond Market Rallied as the U.S. Economy Recovered

The reporting period began well after the wake of a global banking crisis and deep recession that had produced steep declines among the various fixed income markets and other long-term asset classes.

Sector Allocation Strategy Produced Strong Results

The fund benefited in this environment from its underweight exposure to U.S.Treasury securities and overweight positions in investment-grade corporate bonds, high yield bonds, commercial mortgage-backed securities and asset-backed securities.The fund’s holdings in the investment-grade corporate sector were broadly diversified across industry groups to mitigate some of the risk inherent in an emphasis on bonds rated “triple-B,” the lowest and top-performing investment-grade credit tier during the reporting period.The fund’s holdings of high yield bonds emphasized issuers in non-cyclical industry groups, including the health care and utilities industry sectors. We focused on high yield issuers that we believed had sound underlying assets.The fund’s positions in commercial mortgages focused on AAA-rated, seasoned securities that were issued before banks relaxed their credit standards.The fund also benefited from high-quality asset-backed securities backed by automobile loans and credit card receivables.

In order to focus on adding value through our sector allocation and security selection strategies, we generally maintained the fund’s average duration in a range that was roughly in line with the benchmark. In addition, the fund benefited from a focus on bonds with maturities in the five-year range, where the rally was relatively robust.

Maintaining a Disciplined Approach to Security Selection

As of the reporting period’s end, we believe that higher yielding bonds have room for further gains while a sub-par U.S. economic recovery continues to gain momentum. However, we are aware that the bulk of the bond market rally probably is behind us, and we expect the Fed to pare back some of its remedial programs in 2010.Therefore, we believe that security selection will become a more critical determinant of fund performance over the foreseeable future, an environment to which our research-intensive approach may be particularly well suited.As market conditions change, we are prepared to adjust our strategies, including reducing the fund’s exposure to higher-yielding bonds in favor of U.S. Treasury securities and U.S. government agency securities.

February 16, 2010


1	Total return includes reinvestment of dividends and any capital gains paid, and does not take into
	consideration the applicable contingent deferred sales charge imposed on redemptions in the case of
	Class B shares. Had these charges been reflected, returns would have been lower. Past performance
	is no guarantee of future results. Share price, yield and investment return fluctuate such that upon
	redemption, fund shares may be worth more or less than their original cost.
2	SOURCE: LIPPER INC. — Reflects reinvestment of dividends and, where applicable, capital
	gain distributions.The BofA Merrill Lynch 1-5Year Corporate/Government Index is a market
	value-weighted index that tracks the performance of publicly placed, non-convertible, fixed-rate,
	coupon-bearing, investment-grade U.S. domestic debt. Maturities of the securities range from one to
	five years. Investors cannot invest directly in any index.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)

NOTE 1—Significant Accounting Policies:

Dreyfus Short Term Income Fund (the “fund”) is a separate non-diversified series of Dreyfus Investment Grade 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 seeks to maximize total return, consisting of capital appreciation and current income. The Dreyfus Corporation (the “Manager” or “Dreyfus”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of The Bank of New York Mellon Corporation (“BNY Mellon”), serves as the fund’s investment adviser.

MBSC Securities Corporation (the “Distributor”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Manager, is the distributor of the fund’s shares. The fund is authorized to issue 700 million shares of $.001 par value Common Stock.The fund currently offers three classes of shares: Class B (100 million shares authorized), Class D (500 million shares authorized) and Class P (100 million shares authorized). Class B shares are subject to a contingent deferred sales charge (“CDSC”) imposed on Class B share redemptions made within six years of purchase and automatically convert to Class D shares after six years.The fund does not offer Class B shares, except in connection with dividend reinvestment and permitted exchanges of Class B shares. Class D and Class P shares are sold at net asset value per share only to institutional investors. Class D shares purchased at net asset value (an investment of $250,000 or more) will have a CDSC imposed on redemptions made within eighteen months of purchase. Other differences between the classes include the services offered to and the expenses borne by each class, the allocation of certain transfer agency costs and certain voting rights. Income, expenses (other than expenses attributable to a specific class), and realized and unrealized gains or losses on investments are allocated to each class of shares based on its relative net assets.

The Company accounts separately for the assets, liabilities and operations of each series. Expenses directly attributable to each series are

charged to that series’ operations; expenses which are applicable to all series are allocated among them on a pro rata basis.

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

approved by the Board of Directors, or are determined by the fund not to reflect accurately fair value, are valued at fair value as determined in good faith under the direction of the Board of Directors. The factors that may be considered when fair valuing a security include 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. Short-term investments, excluding U.S. Treasury Bills, are carried at amortized cost, which approximates value. Registered investment companies that are not traded on an exchange are valued at their net asset value. Financial futures and options, which are traded on an exchange, are valued at the last sales price on the securities exchange on which such securities are primarily traded or at the last sales price on the national securities market on each business day. Options traded over-the-counter are valued at the mean between the bid and asked price. Investments in swap transactions are valued each business day by an independent pricing service approved by the Board of Directors. Swaps are valued by the service by using a swap pricing model which incorporates among other factors, default probabilities, recovery rates, credit curves of the underlying issuers and swap spreads on interest rates. Investments denominated in foreign currencies are translated to U.S. dollars at the prevailing rates of exchange. Forward contracts are valued at the forward rate.

orderly. GAAP requires enhanced disclosures around valuation inputs and techniques used during annual and interim periods.

Various inputs are used in determining the value of the fund’s investments relating to fair value measurements.These inputs are summarized in the three broad levels listed below:

Level 1—unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical investments.

Level 2—other significant observable inputs (including quoted prices for similar investments, interest rates, prepayment speeds, credit risk, etc.).

Level 3—significant unobservable inputs (including the fund’s own assumptions in determining the fair value of investments).

The inputs or methodology used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of the risk associated with investing in those securities.

The following is a summary of the inputs used as of January 31, 2010 in valuing the fund’s investments:

In January 2010, FASB issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2010-06 “Improving Disclosures about Fair Value Measurements”. ASU 2010-06 will require reporting entities to make new disclosures about amounts and reasons for significant transfers in and out of Level 1 and Level 2 fair value measurements as well as inputs and valuation techniques used to measure fair value for both recurring and nonrecurring fair value measurements that fall in either Level 2 or Level 3, and information on purchases, sales, issuances and settlements on a gross basis in the reconciliation of activity in Level 3 fair value measurements. The new and revised disclosures are required to be implemented for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2009 except for the disclosures surrounding purchases,sales,issuances and settlements on a gross basis in the reconciliation of Level 3 fair value measurements, which are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2010. Management is currently evaluating the impact the adoption of ASU No. 2010-06 may have on the fund’s financial statement disclosures.

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 resulting from changes in exchange rates. Foreign currency gains and losses on investments are included with net realized and unrealized gain or loss on investments.

Pursuant to a securities lending agreement with The Bank of New York Mellon, a subsidiary of BNY Mellon and an affiliate of Dreyfus, 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. Collateral equivalent to at least 100% of the market value of securities on loan is maintained at all times. Collateral is either in the form of cash, which can be invested in certain money market mutual funds managed by the Manager, U.S. Government and Agency securities or letters of credit.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. During the period ended January 31, 2010, The Bank of New York Mellon earned $4,806 from lending portfolio securities, pursuant to the securities lending agreement.

(d) Affiliated issuers: Investments in other investment companies advised by the Manager are defined as “affiliated” in the Act.

Each of the tax years in the three-year period ended July 31, 2009 remains subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service and state taxing authorities.

The fund has an unused capital loss carryover of $88,947,509 available for federal income tax purposes to be applied against future net securities profits, if any, realized subsequent to July 31, 2009. If not applied, $4,403,293 of the carryover expires in fiscal 2010, $21,420,716 expires in fiscal 2011, $7,815,155 expires in fiscal 2012, $29,412,542 expires in fiscal 2013, $8,634,655 expires in fiscal 2014, $7,342,005 expires in fiscal 2015, $4,178,299 expires in fiscal 2016 and $5,740,844 expires in fiscal 2017.

The fund participates with other Dreyfus-managed funds in a $225 million unsecured credit facility led by Citibank, N.A. and a $300 million unsecured credit facility provided by The Bank of New York Mellon, (each, a “Facility”), each to be utilized primarily for temporary or emergency purposes, including the financing of redemptions. In connection therewith, the fund has agreed to pay its pro rata portion of commitment fees for each Facility. Interest is charged to the fund based on rates determined pursuant to the terms of the respective Facility at the time of borrowing.

(c) Under the Shareholder Services Plan, Class B, Class D and Class P shares pay the Distributor at an annual rate of .25% of the value of the average daily net assets of Class B and Class P shares and .20% of the

value of the average daily net assets of Class D shares, for the provision of certain services.The services provided may include personal services relating to shareholder accounts, such as answering shareholder inquiries regarding Class B, Class D and Class P shares 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.

The disclosure requirements distinguish between derivatives, which are accounted for as “hedges” and those that do not qualify for hedge accounting. Because investment companies value their derivatives at fair value and recognize changes in fair value through the Statement of Operations, they do not qualify for such accounting. Accordingly, even though a fund’s investments in derivatives may represent economic hedges, they are considered to be non-hedge transactions for purposes of this disclosure.

Futures Contracts: In the normal course of pursuing its investment objectives, the fund is exposed to market risk, including interest rate risk as a result of changes in value of underlying financial instruments.The fund invests in financial futures contracts in order to manage its exposure to or protect against changes in the market.A futures contract represents a commitment for the future purchase or a sale of an asset at a specified date. Upon entering into such contracts, 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. Accordingly, variation margin payments are received or made to reflect daily unrealized gains or losses which are recorded in the Statement of Operations. Futures contracts are valued daily at the last sales price established by the Board of Trade or exchange upon which they are traded. When the contracts are closed, the fund recognizes a realized gain or loss. There is minimal counterparty credit risk to the fund with futures, since futures are exchange traded and the exchange’s clearinghouse, as counterparty to all exchange traded futures, guarantees the futures against default. Contracts open at January 31, 2010 are set forth in the Statement of Financial Futures.

obligates the writer to buy the underlying security or securities at the exercise price at any time during the option period, or at a specified date.The fund purchases and writes (sells) put and call options primarily to hedge against changes in security prices, securities that the fund intends to purchase, or against fluctuations in value caused by changes in prevailing market interest rates or other market conditions.

As a writer of call options, the fund receives a premium at the outset and then bears the market risk of unfavorable changes in the price of the financial instrument underlying the option. Generally, the fund realizes a gain, to the extent of the premium, if the price of the underlying financial instrument decreases between the date the option is written and the date on which the option is terminated. Generally, the fund incurs a loss, if the price of the financial instrument increases between those dates.

As a writer of put options, the fund receives a premium at the outset and then bears the market risk of unfavorable changes in the price of the financial instrument underlying the option. Generally, the fund realizes a gain,to the extent of the premium,if the price of the underlying financial instrument increases between the date the option is written and the date on which the option is terminated. Generally, the fund incurs a loss, if the price of the financial instrument decreases between those dates.As a writer of an option, the fund may have no control over whether the underlying securities may be sold (call) or purchased (put) and as a result bears the market risk of an unfavorable change in the price of the security underlying the written option. One risk of holding a put or a call option is that if the option is not sold or exercised prior to its expiration, it becomes worthless. However, this risk is limited to the premium paid by the fund. Upon the expiration or closing of the option transaction, a gain or loss is reported in the Statement of Operations.

The following summarizes the fund’s call/put options written for the period ended January 31, 2010:
