IELTS is only a requirement if you apply under SDS. Otherwise PTE, TOEFL, IELTS, and even DuoLingo (although DuoLingo is only accepted by a handful of colleges/unis) are all valid.

Well i won’t advise you as it’s harder than IELTS & you gotta score min 100-110 marks at least so better opt for IELTS as it’s much more easier, I scored 83 in TOEFL & when i appeared for IELTS I made it to 7.5

Gotta disagree with that. I've done all three - PTE, TOEFL and IELTS (all Academic versions) and PTE was the absolute easiest. TOEFL and IELTS are similar in difficulty in reading but I felt that listening, speaking, and writing in IELTS were harder than TOEFL. Also you get no breaks in IELTS - it's all back-to-back.

Trend is your friend why most people appear for IELTS? rather TOEFL lol but anyways do whatever gets the best result and I don’t think break matters also you have to record stuff in TOEFL where you get a 1 to 1 conversation in IELTS
