On 2 October 2011, Indrašis received his second recall to Dinamo Riga and made his debut in the Kontinental Hockey League (KHL) on 5 October 2011 in a game against HC Spartak Moscow.[2] However his break came when Ted Nolan selected Indrašis for 2012 World Championship roster.[3] He played the tournament on the first line along with Jānis Sprukts and Miķelis Rēdlihs, scoring three goals and 5 points in 7 games.[4]

After the breakthrough in world championships, Indrašis signed a three-year contract with Dinamo Rīga.[5] At the start of the season, Indrašis continued to show his scoring touch, but his production decreased in the middle of the season. At this point, Indrašis was sent affiliate team.[6] Later, he was recalled and spent the rest of the season with Dinamo.

Indrašis went to NHL Chicago Blackhawks and Vancouver Canucks summer camps in 2012 and 2013 respectively.[7][8]

After two productive seasons with Dynamo Moscow, Indrašis returned to Dinamo Riga by signing a one-year contract on 28 July 2020.[9] In the 2020–21 season, Indrašis led the club in scoring across all categories with 16 goals, 23 assists and 39 points through 49 regular season games.

Indrašis again left Dinamo as a free agent, remaining in the KHL by agreeing to a contract with HC Vityaz on 18 May 2021.[10]

After splitting the 2021–22 season between Vityaz and Admiral Vladivostok, posting a combined 17 points through 46 games, Indrašis continued his season in moving to the Swiss National League, agreeing to a contract with EHC Biel on 15 February 2022.[11]

On 25 July 2022, Indrašis signed a one-year contract with German club Schwenninger Wild Wings of the DEL for the 2022–23 season.[12]
