I see it was worse when i bought it from a supermarket you know the cheapest alive basil u can get. And i see its healthy, theres new pretty alive leafs so it means its trying. And the leafs on the end of it are alive too but one by one it dries and dies. I was thinking about cutting it over the new alive little leafs maybe it too heavy for the plant? I repotted it into soil that was used a few years before and there were ani.als on it and i also put a not bad quality soil from a gardening shop.
I water it a lot but it dries easily. I water it daily but sometimes weekends i dont cuz im not home. But it rained a lot on those weekends so i dont think it needs more water.
It on a balcony which gets direct light from 11 to sunlight but this is next to the fence so afternoon theres the fence's shadow .

In that type of container, I doubt you need to water once a day. It probably has root rot, start by not overwatering. Hope this fixes your issue.
