How to check database index status ? whether database index requires rebuild or reorganize ?

Take connection to SQL Server and execute below query
SELECT OBJECT_NAME(ind.OBJECT_ID) AS TableName, ind.name AS IndexName, indexstats.index_type_desc AS IndexType,indexstats.avg_fragmentation_in_percent FROM sys.dm_db_index_physical_stats(DB_ID(), NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL) indexstats INNER JOIN sys.indexes ind  ON ind.object_id = indexstats.object_id AND ind.index_id = indexstats.index_id WHERE indexstats.avg_fragmentation_in_percent > 30 and indexstats.page_count >1000 ORDER BY indexstats.avg_fragmentation_in_percent DESC
Above query will give result-set with % of fragmentation on what table and its Index-name.
Anything over 30% is bad but on a small table still would not have a major impact.
Microsoft guidelines is
5% and < = 30% ALTER INDEX REORGANIZE
30% ALTER INDEX REBUILD WITH (ONLINE = ON)*
For reference click here
How to Fix it ?

Execute Below Query

For example to rebuild all the indexes on the SalesOrderDetail table, use the following statement:
ALTER INDEX ALL ON Sales.SalesOrderDetail REBUILD
To reorganize the index you can use below command.
ALTER INDEX ALL ON Sales.SalesOrderDetail REORGANIZE
Note : you can change table name as per your need.

    GO
    SELECT session_id, wait_duration_ms, wait_type, blocking_session_id
    FROM sys.dm_os_waiting_tasks
    WHERE blocking_session_id <> 0
    GO
    2. With above query you would get session ID , Wait duration and blocking session id.
    Use below query to fetch what query is creating problem
    DBCC inputbuffer (Session_ID)
    3. With above you should be able to get the exact query causing the problem, now as a DBA you can report this to your development team and if required KILL it using below query
    Kill Session_ID
