Transit visa

Indians (and lots of other nationalies) have to apply to the Singapore embassy for a transit visa. It allows you to remain in the airport before you catch a connecting flight to another country.  At every airport in the world, you have to go through immigration when you disembark a plane.

Ehh what? No.

If it's a transit flight then you don't necessarily go through immigration, in fact more likely that you do NOT go through immigration in the airport where you transit.

Of course there are some exceptions, for example if your transit also means change between different airlines, coming from outside schengen to schengen for transit to another schengen area, etc.

Please provide a source for your statement that "Indians (and lots of other nationalies) have to apply to the Singapore embassy for a transit visa.".
