Institutional Daily Income Fund
600 Fifth Avenue
New York, New York 10020

Gentlemen:

     We  have  acted  as  counsel  to   Institutional   Daily   Income  Fund,  a
Massachusetts  business trust (the "Fund") in connection with the preparation of
the  Rule  24f-2  Notice  (the"Notice")  covering   1,387,059,499.33  shares  of
beneficial interest, par value $.01 per share, of the Fund.

     We have  examined  copies of the  Declaration  of Trust and  By-laws of the
Fund,  the  Registration  Statement,   and  such  other  corporate  records  and
documents, including the consent of the Board of Trustees and the minutes of the
meeting of the Board of Trustees of the Fund,  as we have deemed  necessary  for
the purpose of this opinion. We have also examined such other documents, papers,
statutes and authorities as we deemed  necessary to form a basis for the opinion
hereinafter expressed.  In our examination of such material, we have assumed the
genuineness of all  signatures and the conformity to original  documents of fact
material to such opinion, and we have relied upon statements and certificates of
officers and representatives of the Fund and others.

     Based  upon the  foregoing,  we are of the  opinion  that  1,387,059,499.33
shares  of  Beneficial  Interest,  par value  $.01 per  share of the  Fund,  the
registration of which the Notice makes  definitive,  were legally issued,  fully
paid and non-assessable.

     We hereby consent to the filing of this  opinion as an exhibit to the Rule
24f-2 Notice.

                                                              Very truly yours,

                                                              BATTLE FOWLER LLP
