Watching Indian TV in Australia & NZ

How can I watch Indian channels in Australia?

There are four main ways: free-to-air programs on SBS, Indian broadcasters' own streaming apps (usually one subscription each), a satellite dish, or a plug-in set-top box. Infinity TV is a set-top box for South Asian families in Australia and New Zealand: it plugs into your TV's HDMI port and internet and brings live TV, movies, series and kids' shows in 16 languages into one menu, with one remote. See our guide to watching Indian TV in Australia.

How can I watch Indian TV in New Zealand?

The options are the same as in Australia. Infinity TV delivers across New Zealand, including Auckland, Hamilton, Wellington and Christchurch, at the same AUD price. See Indian TV in New Zealand.

Can I watch Indian channels for free in Australia?

A little. SBS shows some news and programs in South Asian languages, and some smart TVs include a few free channels. The choice is limited, so most families who want live TV in their own language use a paid app or a set-top box.

What is the easiest way for parents and grandparents to watch Indian TV?

A set-top box with a simple remote is usually easiest. Infinity TV is plug and play, with an easy menu and no passwords to remember, so elders can switch it on and find their channel on their own.

Can I watch Indian channels on a smart TV?

Yes. You can install separate apps on the TV, or plug in a box. Infinity TV works with any TV that has a free HDMI port, smart or not, including Samsung, LG and Sony. See Indian channels on a smart TV.

Do I need a satellite dish?

No. Infinity TV works over your home internet, so there is no dish or installer needed.
