Stacked column with total number but percentage data label

Hello experts,

I am having hard time for last few hours on this.

i have a stacked column line chart where I created columns with total value. X axis has months and Y has total value with 5 categories in each column as each stack. Now I was asked to keep the same graph but data label would be percentage based on each column instead of total value.

so for November, if I have 5 categories as stack, the stacks should be labeled as 24%, 28%, 24 %, 12%,12% instead of real values in millions that I used to make the graph.
I tried to make measure or calculated columns for % and use them as lines . But lines do not align with categories in stack. 

Any idea how to do? 
Help will be appreciated

thanks

Did you try 100 % Stack column chart, you can see the values in percentage-

They do not want that. With total value we are seeing a trend so they would like to keep that but data label as %

Thanks,

does not help though. First I do not need %of GT but column wise percentage and that's why I created measures and used as line axis, 

and is having problem as data labels for lines do not match the stacks in column chart.
