Israel probably due to NPT violations (same with India) and probably Singapore due to existing compliance issues with export controlled products being exported to China or Russia (same with UAE and India).

Just a small correction.

India is not a signatory to NPT. There's no violation.

That's the violation. Same reason Israel isn't included despite being a major NATO+ member.

Just because you aren't a party to an agreement doesn't mean you aren't in violation of it.

They are not in compliance with the provisions. They aren't violating anything. They can't violate a promise they haven't made.

While you are technically correct, they still are getting denied because they wouldn't make the promise. So the outcome is the same.
