Hi! So I’ve been growing this basil indoors but it’s been beyond me trying to figure out why some leaves are blackening like this? Does anyone know what might be the culprit?

Same…..and a couple of my stems (seems like they are a different plant) near the edge of the rim of the pot fell over.

It may be black spot fungus. Planta has a section where you can read about it.  
Theres also a group for this: “Pests diseases and problems”.
