but mam in this case there is excess tax credit my question is that how a restaurant dealer can set off cess paid on cold drink while he can recover only 12℅ or 18℅ from his customer

Under current rules a standalone restaurant pays 5% GST without ITC, so GST or cess paid on cold drinks cannot be claimed at all; it becomes a cost built into the menu price, and only restaurants in hotels with room tariff above Rs 7,500 pay 18% with ITC.
