He served in the Second Anglo-Sikh War and was present at the Siege of Multan. On 18 May 1849, he raised the 1st Punjab Irregular Cavalry, which subsequently became the 21st Prince Albert Victor's Own Cavalry. Daly was promoted to the rank of captain in 1854 and led his regiment during the Indian Mutiny. The regiment operated in North India and took part in the Siege of Delhi and the Relief of Lucknow. He went on the command the Brigade of Hodson's Horse during the war. Daly was twice recommended for the Victoria Cross as a result of his conduct.
He subsequently served in the Bombay Staff Corps. Daly held the position of Governor General of India's Agent, in Central India between 1870 and 1881, and was promoted to lieutenant-general in 1877. He became a Knight Commander of the Order of the Bath on 29 May 1875, and a Knight Grand Cross in the same order on 25 May 1889. Before leaving India, Daly had taken a great interest in education and had begun a College in Indore which was later named after him. In the General Election of 1886, Daly stood as the Liberal Unionist candidate in Dundee. He was beaten by the Liberal Party candidate.
