Singh represented India at Miss Grand International 2015 in Bangkok, Thailand and won the 2nd runner-up title. Four years after the pageant was held, the original winner was dethroned and the first runner-up from Australia assumed the title; the new winner was later dethroned too by the pageant making India the assumed winner of Miss Grand 2015.[10][11][12]
