For any hard question it can be answered with an easy explanation:

-Indra: Inherits a downgrade version of his father eyes, genes for powerful chakra and spiritual energy.

-Asura: Inherits his father body (whether that means), his powerful lifeforce, physical energy and large pool of chakra.

As simple as that without to much unnecesary in deep look. Also as far as i remember it was never stated that the lesser body(Asura)was equal to the lesser eyes(Indra) in power (at least from the get go, later it did)
