Notably, he was signed by Royal Challengers Bangalore in the 2019 IPL and later picked up by Lucknow Super Giants in the 2025 auction for ₹30 lakhs to take his net worth to Rs.1 crore. He also captained Delhi East Riders to a title win in the 2024 Delhi Premier League (DPL), scoring 381 runs in 9 innings. Off the field, Himmat is known for his calm demeanor and focus on mental conditioning. He believes in visualization techniques and dedicates time to fitness and game awareness.
His personal life made headlines when he married Ineka Tewari, a lawyer and the daughter of Member of Parliament Manish Tewari, on 6 December 2024, after dating for over six years. He was previously linked to Annaika Ahuja. Himmat comes from a close-knit family, with his father Tejbir Singh and mother Veena Singh being supportive of his career. He has two sisters, Ragya V Singh and Harshita Singh, and is also fond of his niece.
Himmat’s father Tejbir Singh had earlier in 2015 filed a criminal defamation case against Kirti Azad, Bishan Singh Bedi, Surinder Khanna and Sameer Bahadur for allegedly stating that Tejbir had exchanged ₹25 lakh for his son’s selection in the Delhi squad for the Vijay Hazare Trophy.
Despite his rise, Himmat faced controversy early in his career when allegations surfaced in 2015 suggesting his father had paid selectors for his inclusion in the Delhi team. The matter went to court, with his father filing a legal case against the accusers. A fan of anime, particularly the Akatsuki group from Naruto, Himmat also has a creative side—sporting multiple tattoos and ear piercings.
