The key words in your post are "in the past". Shall I add "in the past" was when they had full common ownership?

As for Tigerair and Tigerair Philipines, the aircraft you have described as being 'transfered' are in fact leased from Tigerair (Singapore). So not quite transferred.

As for ordering too many aircraft, again they are totally separate companies. So maybe Tigerair (Singapore) ordered too many, or more to the point traffic levels have changed from forecasts, but that doesn't mean they can or should transfer aircraft to another company just because they have the same name.

That would be like Virgin America sending some A320's to Virgin Australia because they had too many. (Would be good though). As mentioned all Tigerair Singapore and Tigerair Australia share is the name and a minority shareholder.
