Think of it in these terms - remember when we used to not shoot bonus FT's if there was a player-control foul? The Fed. just expanded that to also include fouls by all members of the team in control. The signal (the "punch") is used to let people know we have a team-control foul, so if the other team is in the bonus, we will not be shooting FT's.

Times you will most likely see it - the "pass and crash", and illegal screens set by the offense.

Times it will not occur - rebounding fouls before a player gains control, and fouls during a throw-in. In both of these cases, there is no team-control.
