Difference between two dates includes both the dates
For example 

$date1=date_create("2015-01-01");
$date2=date_create("2015-01-03");
$diff=date_diff($date1,$date2);
echo $diff->format("%R%a days");

Output :

+2 days

But I need to get +3 days as output like from starting date to ending date

You can do something like as

$date1=date_create("2015-01-01");
$date2=date_create("2015-01-03")->modify("+1 day");
$diff=date_diff($date1,$date2);
echo $diff->format("%R%a days");

Output:

+3 days

Use the below code

<?php
$date1 = date_create("2015-01-01");
$date2 = date_create("2015-01-03");
date_add($date2,date_interval_create_from_date_string('1 day'));
$diff = date_diff($date1, $date2);
echo $diff->format("%R%a days");
?>
