Budget 2022: Assocham gave a big suggestion regarding TDS rates, know what is special?

Budget 2022: Industry Chamber Assocham suggested to the government on Thursday to rationalize the rates of Tax Deduction at Source (TDS) in the upcoming budget. The Income Tax Act provides for multiple rates of TDS in different types of transactions. Because of this, doubts arise about the application of the correct rate, which leads to litigation.
