Kirtiman Singh Basnyat (Nepali: कीर्तिमान् सिँह बस्न्यात) was Commander and General of the Nepalese Army. He fought in the Sino-Nepalese War and various other campaigns. In his first Battle, he fought from the Kerung Axis under the leadership of Kaji Balbhadra Shah along with Amar Singh Thapa (Sardar), Bhotu Pande and in the second battle from the Kharta Axis.

He was Mulkazi (Chief Minister) and a favorite of the Regent Subarna Prabha Devi. He was secretly assassinated on 28 September 1801, by the supporters of Raj Rajeshwari Devi. Another Kazi Damodar Pande was accused of the murder charges. In the resulting confusion many courtiers were jailed, while some executed, based solely on rumors. Bakhtawar Singh Basnyat, brother of assassinated Kirtiman Singh, was then given the post of MulKaji.
