How to: Set Up Tax Collected at Source

In Microsoft Dynamics NAV, you must set up Tax Collected at Source (TCS) to calculate TCS amounts. You must also set up the following TCS prerequisites before setting up TCS:

  • A new general ledger account for each type of TCS in the chart of accounts

  • TCS tax information

  • TCS rounding precision

  • Income tax accounting periods

  • Tax collection account numbers

  • TCS nature of collections

  • TCS assessee codes

  • TCS parties

  • TCS Concessional codes

  • Correction types

  • Nature of Collection (NOC) lines

To set up tax collected at source

  1. In the Search box, enter TCS Setup, and then choose the related link.

  2. Fill in the fields as described in the following table.

    Field Description

    TCS Nature of Collection

    The TCS nature of the collection code. This field is to be defined when the rate defined is either concessional or zero as per the certificate issued under section 206C (9) of the Income Tax Act. The value defined in this field is displayed in Form 27EQ.

    Assessee Code

    The TCS assessee code.

    Effective Date

    The effective date of the TCS rate.

    Concessional Code

    The TCS concessional code. This field is required when the rate defined is either concessional or zero as per the certificate issued under section 206C (9) of the Income Tax Act. The value defined in this field is displayed in Form 27EQ. For more information, see Form 27EQ Entry Table.

    TCS %

    The TCS percentage.

    The threshold limit for each TCS group. TCS is collected when the total amount of the transactions with the assessee exceeds the threshold limit in the financial year.

    Surcharge %

    Contract Amount

    The per contract value for each TCS type. The TCS is deducted when the total amount of transactions with the assessee exceeds the per contract value for the threshold amount in a financial year.
