      We have two sites. One site for US (site.com)and another is for India(site.co.in). Redirection is working based on ip address and location.So if I write US(site.com) site link in India location then it will automatically redirect to India site(site.co.in).

      We have given a link in the header of the site which will be used to open another country site.

      Example : Currently India site open in my browser so it contain US site link. and US site open in my browser so it contain India site link.

      We check on google web master and we found back links of cross domains so Is it an issue?

        You have two issues here.

        1. Interlinking site sis never a good idea with a dofollow links, so I would look at that. But it is not an issue if its nofollow.

        2. Googlebot only crawls from the US and will only every crawl the US site if you send all US ip's to the US site. I would use hreflang on your site.

        Otherwise you will confuse Google and possibly get a cloaking issue on the site.

        Also look at the canonical tag
