Johnson joined Paine at the crease and after he got his eye in, walloped Singh over long-on with a clean-hit six, the first of the innings.
The Australians were indebted to Paine, Watson, Johnson and Ben Hilfenhaus (20no) for keeping the Indians in the field for more than five sessions.
Wicketkeeper Paine deserved a century, building an innings of tremendous composure that will leave selectors pondering the future of Brad Haddin.
