Both the vedic and puranic Indras are one and the same,In vedic times he was the king od the denas.Then he became the supreme controller of the whether being the controller of Vayu Varuns etc.
During the course of the Puranic evolution he was given less importance and he and the other devas were made to seek the help of the post Vedic era Gods, Siva, Vishnu etc
His loss of importance (if I may so call it ) is due to evolution of the religion
