Gst on food supply

we are service providers like machinery repairs and maintenance.

we provide food for department and they have paid that amount with 18% gst, and the hotel who are provided the food, have issued an invoice with 18% gst. can I show both invoices. i want to treat it as supply and I will pay the gst difference. is it correct?

Yes, your approach is correct. You can show both invoices. Under the exception to Section 17(5)(b)(i) of the CGST Act, you are eligible to claim Input Tax Credit (ITC) on the hotel's 18% GST invoice because you are using it to make an outward taxable supply of the same category (food) to the department. You will report the hotel invoice as ITC and your invoice to the department as output liability, paying only the net GST difference.
