How to have table reside in a filegroup that is different from the filegroup of indices

I'm using SQL Server 2014.  Can someone tell me how to make the table reside in one filegroup while its primary key and subsequent keys reside in another filegroup?

I wrote the following code specifying the primary key is to reside in a filegroup named @ndxFileGrp and the table in @dbsFileGrp.  But when I execute the code, the table and index are stored in the same filegroup named @ndxFileGrp.  Thank you for help.

ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[CreateTables] 
	-- Add the parameters for the stored procedure here
	@dataSrc char(5), 
	@yr int
AS
BEGIN
	-- SET NOCOUNT ON added to prevent extra result sets from
	-- interfering with SELECT statements.
	SET NOCOUNT ON;

	SET ANSI_PADDING ON;

	DECLARE @tblName    VARCHAR(MAX), 
	        @tblPKey    VARCHAR(MAX),
		@dbsFileGrp VARCHAR(MAX),
		@ndxFileGrp VARCHAR(MAX),
		@sql        NVARCHAR(MAX);

    

	-- =============================
	-- CHARGE Table

	IF UPPER(@dataSrc) <> 'ST_PA'
		BEGIN
			SELECT @tblName = 'dbo.' + UPPER(@dataSrc) + '_CHRG_' + STR(@yr,2);
			SELECT @tblPkey = UPPER(@dataSrc) + '_CHRG_' + STR(@yr,2) + '_PK';
			SELECT @dbsFileGrp = 'SQL_' + SUBSTRING(UPPER(@dataSrc), 1, 2) + SUBSTRING(UPPER(@dataSrc), 4, 2) + '_DBS_FG';
			SELECT @ndxFileGrp = 'SQL_' + SUBSTRING(UPPER(@dataSrc), 1, 2) + SUBSTRING(UPPER(@dataSrc), 4, 2) + '_IDX_FG';
			
			SELECT @sql = 'CREATE TABLE ' + RTRIM(@tblName) + 
			                          '(  [CNVRSN_SRC_CD]	varchar(5)		NOT NULL, ' +
						  '   [LHS_REC_NUM]		numeric(9, 0)	NOT NULL, ' +
						  '   [REV_SQNC_NUM]	numeric(3, 0)	NOT NULL, ' +
						  '   [REV_CHRG_AMT]	numeric(9, 2)	NULL, ' +
						  '   [REV_COST_AMT]	numeric(9, 2)	NULL, ' +
						  '   [RCV_DT]			datetime2(0)	NULL, ' +
						  '   [UNIT_OF_SRVC]	numeric(6, 0)	NULL, ' +
						  ' CONSTRAINT ' + @tblPkey + ' PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED ' +
						  ' ( [LHS_REC_NUM]    ASC, ' +
						  '	  [CNVRSN_SRC_CD]  ASC, ' +
						  '   [REV_SQNC_NUM]   ASC  ' +
						  ' ) WITH (PAD_INDEX = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS = ON) ON [' + @ndxFileGrp  + '] ' +
						  ') ON ' + @dbsFileGrp;

			IF NOT EXISTS (SELECT * FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES 
                          WHERE TABLE_NAME = @tblName)
			BEGIN
			    EXEC sp_executesql @sql;			      
			END
		
		END 

	SET ANSI_PADDING OFF
