Step 2
Compute how much will be Rs. 1 if you invest at this rate at the end of Day1.
It will be Rs.1.000329 (that is Rs 1 + 0.000329)
Compute how much will be Rs. 1 if you invest at this rate at the end of Day1.
It will be Rs.1.000329 (that is Rs 1 + 0.000329)

If you want to know how much this will be at the end of Day 20 (20 days compounded interest), then do like this:
1.000329 raised to 20th power. In excel do the following =1.000329^20 you will get 1.006596.
