The note addresses application of the special dividend deduction provision where dividend receipts are wholly exempt; it explains that a deduction intended for taxable dividends cannot apply where dividend income is exempt under the dividend income exemption provisions. The appellate authority found the lower appellate officer failed to recognise that the assessee had disclosed exempt dividend income and that the assessment accepted the return as filed; accordingly the appellate order was reversed. The matter is remitted to the assessing officer to correct the computation, reducing reported business income as directed to reflect the exclusion of exempt dividends from the deduction calculus.
