I undestand dividend from an India company is exempt from tax. What should be the treatment of "gross dividend from an Indian firm" when assessing a firm. I though the exemption assumed that the dividend received would be net and that tax had already been deducted by the dividend paying company?

Should it be treated the same as any dividend?

Please help. I need to apply your judgement on an assignment problem I am working.
