Hi Satish,

After preparing your data for import, use the Data Import Wizard to map the data fields, and run the import.

Follow the process as mentioned in the below salesforce documented article,

Other Blog,

I hope you find the above solution helpful. If it does, please mark as Best Answer to help others too.

Hi Abhishek,

Thanks for your input.
What i am doing now is selecting the CSV file manually and importing the file using Data loader. But the requirement is to automate this process.
Dataloader.io comes with a cost. Any code reference / any tool that comes for free to achieve this Scheduled import of CSV to Salesforce Standard object will be of great help. 

Thanks
