Singapore navy chief Rear Admiral Ng Chee Peng Tuesday met his Indian counterpart Admiral R.K. Dhowan, the defence ministry said.
"The visit of the Singapore naval chief is expected to intensify the cooperation between both navies and strengthen historical ties," said a ministry statement.
Peng, who was welcomed with a guard of honour at the South Block lawns, would also meet Army chief Gen. Bikram Singh, Air Force chief Air Chief Marshal Arup Raha and the defence secretary.
