Singleton beans scopes in Spring

Beans with different Id’s have Singleton instance

singleton: (Default) Scopes a single bean definition to a single object instance per Spring IoC container.

NO, Similar beans with different ids make the different instance (Even scope is defined as Singleton); because the singleton scope checked on the basis of bean ids.
