Ujjal Singh died after being attacked in the city's Crumpsall area on December 1. He was taken to Manchester Royal Infirmary after the knife attack but he died at the hospital, the Manchester Evening News reported.
"Ujjal Singh sadly passed away on December 1, the day of his 63rd Birthday," Singh's family said in a statement.
He is survived by his wife, four children, nine grandchildren and a great-grandson.
A 37-year-old man who was arrested on suspicion of murder has now been bailed until February next year, pending further enquiries.
"We have now made two arrests, but the investigation will still continue until we fully understand exactly what happened," police said.
