Ratan Singh was the ruling Maharaja of the princely state of Bharatpur from 1768 to 1769.

He ascended the throne on the death of Maharaja Jawahar Singh. Jawahar Singh had no son, hence he was succeeded by his brother, Ratan Singh. During a Holi festival held in Vrindavan, possibly drunk Ratan Singh behaved inappropriately with a women and was killed by a mob, a very dilapidated "Ratan Chhatri" is still present. His son Maharaja Kehsri Singh succeeded him in 1769.
