Disclaimer: I assume by impact you mean "case fatality rate" (CFR) This is my hypothesis of lower impact. Both India & Germany have low CFR and we find that in Germany 49% of cases are under the age of 50, while in India 70% of cases are under the age of 50 years. On the contrary, in Italy 70% of Covid infected individuals are above the age of 50, with 39% above the age of 70 and Spain has 69% of cases above the age of 50 with 37% above the age of 70. US case data by age is grouped somewhat differently by CDC but my guess is that close to 40% of infections are in the age-group below 50 years and about 20% are above the age of 70 years, this might partially explain the relatively lower CFR because CFR for ages under 50 is ~0.4% if you are in the age-group of 40-49 & lower below. Median age of the population for these countries are India - 28, Italy - 46, Spain - 44, Germany - 48 & US - 38. Germany seems to have either done something differently here. This can only partially explain the differences but would be an important factor when looking at overall fatalities.
