The 2nd Punjab Regiment was a British Indian Army regiment from 1922 to the partition of India in 1947.

The regiment was formed by the amalgamation of other regiments:

• 1st Battalion, from the 67th Punjabis, formerly the 7th Regiment of Madras Native Infantry
• 2nd Battalion, from the 69th Punjabis
• 3rd Battalion, from the 72nd Punjabis
• 4th Battalion, from the 74th Punjabis
• 5th Battalion, from the 87th Punjabis
• 10th (Training) Battalion, formed by redesignation of 2nd Bn, 67th Punjabis

The first battalion was raised at Trichinopoly in 1761 as "Coast Sepoys". The first four battalions were raised during the hostilities in the Carnatic in south India between 1761 and 1776. The numbers and titles of the battalions changed during the successive reorganisations of the Madras Presidency Army and later of the Indian Army.

The regiment insignia is of a naval vessel, a galley. It was awarded to the 9th Madras Native Infantry in recognition of the readiness to serve overseas, after the battalion had fought in eight overseas campaigns by 1824.
