Section 10(34) exempts dividend referred in section 115-O
As per section 115-O, the company making dividend payments needs to pay Dividend Distribution Tax at the rate of 15%.
Once DDT is paid, dividend becomes exempt in hands of the receiver.
Also note that, if some income is exempt, there is no question of tax deduction at source.

so we cant actually say that dividend received from an indian company is exempt because ultimately tax is deducted and then given right?
