Dear Manoj,
According to Section 5 of The Income Tax Act, 1961:
"(1) Subject to the provisions of this Act, the total income of any previous year of a person who is a resident includes all income from whatever source derived which—
(a) is received or is deemed to be received in India in such year by or on behalf of such person ; or
(b) accrues or arises or is deemed to accrue or arise to him in India during such year ; or
(c) accrues or arises to him outside India during such year"
Hence all incomes of a resident of India will be taxable in India.
Also, if the same income is taxable abroad where the income accrues or arises, then the assesse can claim the benefit on the basis of DTAA with respective contracting state and also claim the relief u/s 90/90A.
Hence in your case, TCS is correct in deducting tax of income earned in Macau but the relief can be claimed.
