Singh led the country from 2004 to 2014 and was considered the architect of India’s economic liberalisation. He died on Thursday aged 92.
Prime Minister Narendra Modi was present at the ceremony on Saturday. He has called Singh one of the country’s "most distinguished leaders".
Mourners turned out across the capital to pay their respects as Singh’s coffin was taken through the city to the cremation grounds.
