Nathu Singh spent a single IPL season with Gujarat Lions, 2017: 2 matches, 1 wicket.

The arrival

Nathu Singh arrived through the auction: Gujarat Lions paid ₹50 lakh, against a base price of ₹30 lakh.

That first season brought 2 matches and 1 wicket.

At the auction

Nathu Singh went under the hammer three times. The highest price was ₹3.20 cr, paid by Mumbai Indians in 2016, more than 32 times the base price. The market cooled over time: the last purchase, in 2019, cost ₹20 lakh. Being bought did not always mean playing: no match followed for Mumbai Indians in 2016 and Delhi Capitals in 2019.

Seasons without an auction entry were played under a retention, a trade or a signing made outside the auction.
