If Singapore Airlines is willing to sell you the connection, they are confident you can make it. If, for whatever reason out of your control, you miss your second flight out is their contractual obligation to get you into the next flight to your destination.
In practice, 1 hour is plenty for Changi because:
In case you are a slow walker, note that Changi has automatic people movers that connect the far wings of three terminal to the central part. There are also a number of conveyor belt walkways designed to speed up your trip.
Airports don’t come better than Changi — in terms of efficiency and in terms of helpfulness.
Airlines don’t come better than Singapore Airlines.
If it can be done within a 1-hour layover, then it will be done at Changi.
However:
I assume your flights via Singapore are both on Singapore Airlines (SQ) and on a single ticket, in which case: 1 hr is likely sufficient, but SQ will take care of you if it’s not.
Changi is an extremely efficient airport and you don’t need to go through Customs/Immigration for a transfer. SQ flights to/from both India and the US use Terminal 3, which you can walk from end to end in 15-20 min, so if your incoming flight is on time, you will almost certainly make your connection.
However, if your incoming flight is badly delayed, Singapore Airlines will take responsibility and put you on next available flight.
