Large catalogs group channels by broadcasting country first, and India carries dozens of state and regional languages under one country group rather than a separate tab for each. Punjabi sits alongside Hindi, Marathi, Tamil, and others inside that same India folder. Each channel keeps its own on-screen schedule, called the EPG or electronic program guide, so once you're in the right group you can check individual channels the same way you would anywhere else in the catalog. The grouping is about broadcast origin, not about how popular or well known a language is.

Open the India group first, then use your player app's search field rather than scrolling a list that can run into thousands of entries. Most Punjabi stations include the state or language name in the channel title, which makes them easy to spot once you're searching inside the right group instead of the whole catalog. If your app supports favorites or a custom playlist, save the ones you confirm work so you don't have to search from scratch every time you sit down to watch, and pass that saved list along to anyone else in the household who uses the same account.

That pattern usually points to the app, not the channel. Player apps hold their whole visible channel list in memory, and a recent app update can introduce a regression that breaks playback on just one device while an older or different app plays the same channel fine. Reinstalling the app or checking for an update is worth trying before assuming the channel itself is down, since the same feed working elsewhere rules out a server-side fault and points the problem back at that one installation, its cached data, or its current app version specifically.

Use the $5, 24-hour trial to open the India group and check the specific Punjabi channels you want. Paid plans also carry a 7-day money-back window, separate from the trial, no card is stored on file, and nothing renews automatically, so a channel that turns out to be missing doesn't lock you into a charge you didn't expect. Testing first costs a fraction of a full year's plan, and you can do it at the exact time of day you'd normally be watching, rather than relying on a menu listing to tell you what's actually live.
