What's the correct price? ₹105,005 is the price I found. I haven't proceeded to booking because I'm not going to fly it. Should be bookable with an Indian OTA. via, cleartrip and yatra should all work. Perhaps SQ direct if using a VPN.

No more $1,300 OW
The lowest J fare I found on SQ's own website is -
INR 105,000 / USD 1,500 (ONE WAY)
INR 190,000 / USD 2,700 (R/T)
I remember about a month or two ago, it was INR 160,000 / USD 2,200 (R/T)
I did not try searching on any OTA site.
Anyways, I wasn't planning to book this otherwise, I would have jumped on it when it was INR 160k but a travel blogger has just completed this trip OW from AMD-EWR & reading his review, I'm not sure if he liked it or not.

Thanks, folks.
My previous message:
I am interested in stopping over in both SIN & HKG.
Does this fare allow a free (or low-cost) stopover in HKG if I want to return to SFO?
I tried using Yatra but it doesn't show the detailed fare rules. Also, I don't know how to hack my VPN to make SQ think that I am in India.
New message:
In SQ website, I see that the fare basis is D15IIRA2.
In the stopover section, it says:
"FOR FARES WITH FOOTNOTE D UNLIMITED STOPOVERS PERMITTED ON THE PRICING UNIT."
I couldn't find Footnote D in the fare rules. This clause also doesn't specify whether the stopover is limited to SIN.
Would appreciate your help.

Alternatively, get yourself to DEL. MH has an excellent one way J fare to JFK for $1,250. The long legs are on JAL. It's not *A, but the price is good.
