When I visit a hotel and the lunch bill is ₹2500, including GST, I'm unsure if I need to pay the GST separately or if it's already included in the total amount. Can someone with knowledge about this please share their insights and provide clarity? Your responses would be greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Generally it's including the bill value.
If it's separated then it's also shown in the bill with aggregation...

As you said, GST is already included in BILL than no need to pay separately.

By the way, Hotel will bother about GST, no need to worry

The hotel must have done reverse calculation and charged 5% Gst on ₹2381. Kindly check the bill.

You need not to pay any amount other than the amount charged in the bill. It appears that your bill is inclusive of GST. In such cases the supplier has to reverse calculate the GST amount. The GST amount must be mentioned in the bill clearly, if charged separately.
