Applicability of TCS u/s 206C(1H) on GST Component?

There were doubts among taxpayers whether TCS u/s 206C(1H) is to be collected on net of GST amount or inclusive of GST. The matter has been clarified by Income Tax Department vide Circular No.17/2020 dated 29.09.2020

Para 4.6 of circular read as under:

4.6 Adjustment for sale return, discount or indirect taxes

"Adjustment for sale return, discount or indirect taxes 4.6.1 It is requested to clarify that whether adjustment is required to be made for sales return, discount or indirect taxes including GST for the purpose of collection of tax under sub-section (lH) of section 206C of the Act. It is hereby clarified that no adjustment on account of sale return or discount or indirect taxes including GST is required to be made for collection of tax under sub-section (IH) of section 206C of the Act since the collection is made with reference to receipt of amount of sale consideration."

The above para clearly states that TCS u/s 206C(1H) is to be collectd on GST Portion also.
