Solution -

1. '.htaccess' issue -

# Don't show directory listings for URLs which map to a directory.
Options -Indexes

I've commented the above code in the .htaccess file and all started working fine.

2. Apache web server issue -

Also, if you're running your website on Apache web server then please make sure the 'Indexes default' option is checked.

You can check that from WHM >> Service Configuration »Apache Configuration »Global Configuration >> Directory “/” Options >> Indexes default
