While as per existing localization indirect tax amount and charges are automatically included in the gross transaction value for computation of TDS/TCS, while under specific tax deduction type user can exclude taxes and charges for computation of TDS or TCS.

Two new lookup menu Exclude tax for TDS or TCS calculation and Include charges for TDS or TCS calculation is provided under withholding tax group (Navigation path: Main menu > General ledger > Setup > Withholding tax > withholding tax group) to exclude indirect taxes and charges for withholding tax calculation.

After you apply this fix, the tax collection at source (TCS) group field will be updated in intercompany transaction automatically. However, in case of inter-connected transaction, for example, purchase order from sales order, the TCS group filed will be blank. You have to select TCS group manually.
