It's may be account in Staff/Labour welfare or Employee benefit expenses or Office Expenses or General expenses or Business Promotion expenses or Water Cherges under Food and Other expenses...

You can define as per usage of the water bottles...

We can think it's just a drinking water. But, Accountability is with nature of consumes...

Good Luck...

You can classify it as indirect expense.

Use any of the classificarions from above. You can even put it under utilities. Main thing is classification of direct and indirect costs. After that, some say tgere is tax reluef for repairs and maintenance. In the same way you have to find out if any is applicable here
