Resolution

In case the supplier invoice tax amount is correct which means that no Surcharge / EC / SHEC on Income Tax is expected (only Withholding Income Tax), then the Tax Code should be mapped to a Tax Event that is only assigned to the tax type 'Withholding Income Tax'.

  1. Go to the Business Configuration work center.
  2. Go to the Implementation Projects view.
  3. Choose a current project (alternatively, create a new one).
  4. Choose Open Activity List and then go to Fine-Tune.
  5. Open the activity Withholding Tax - India.
  6. Select the relevant Tax Code.
  7. Select a Tax Event for it that does not have Surcharge, EC and SHEC.
  8. Choose Save.
