Per passenger (as usual everywhere outside the US). Small print from tigerairways.com:
The free checked baggage allowance is one item of baggage up to a maximum of 15kg per person. Passengers may not use the unused allowances of others. Only passengers travelling within the same reservation may pool their baggage allowance. Any excess over 15kg will be charged per kilo at the prevailing rates of the departure airport. (Singapore – SGD7.50 per kg, Thailand – THB200 per kg, Macau – HKD38 per kg, Darwin – AUD7.00, All other points – USD5.00 per kg) For safety reasons Tiger Airways will not accept any individual item exceeding 32 kilos.
(And yeah, you're not alone if you find sentences 2 & 3 rather contradictory.)
