Follow the instruction in this post regarding your issue.

Check the router FW region on it's bottom sticker - if it's an EU find its latest FW release here.

Hi,

 

I can find new articles on the Internet saying that in May 2025 the Indian government put forward a proposal to open the 6 GHz band for unlicensed wireless services, but I can't find any news articles stating this has already been enacted in law. 

 

So, to me it seems you might have to wait some time until 6 GHz Wi-Fi becomes available in India.

Hello@mehulparmar31 ,

Welcome to our community.

 

Where did you buy the router? Did you buy it from local stores in India?

 

Please check your wireless country code and supported channels/bandwidth on your MacBook.
