Does gRPC-Web Javascript client application supports gzip compression from gRPC .Net service?

I have a .Net gRPC service that returns gzip compressed response with "grpc-encoding" response header set to gzip. However, the protoc generated js files were not able to decode the response and failing with the error "net::ERR_CONTENT_DECODING_FAILED". The client was able to read the response from the service correctly when gzip compression is not done at the service. Setting the "content-encoding" response header also does not solve the issue.

I understand that the browser is supposed to handle this decoding but it is not happening for gRPC response calls. Can you please let know whether gRPC-web with Javascript client works with gzip response data from server?
