10 April 2020 Sale and distribution of films now included under royalty and hence TDS would be applicable. But the rate( 2% or 10%) is not clear after the amendment to Finance act 2020. Please refer below

As per the Finanace Act 2020,

In section 194J of the Income-tax Act, in sub-section (1),––
(a) in the long line, for the words “ten per cent. of such sum”, the words and
brackets “two per cent. of such sum in case of fees for technical services (not being a
professional services, or royalty where such royalty is in the nature of consideration for
sale, distribution or exhibition of cinematographic films and ten per cent. of such sum in
other cases,” shall be substituted;

So TDS for sale and distrubtion of films is now 2% or 10%. Please clarify
