Gst itc for restaurants within hotel

One hotel is charging 5% gst on its restaurant bills. Is it eligible for claiming ITC on inward supplies ?

If not eligible, how to treat it while accounting ?

i.e whether taking itc while passing purchase entry and reversing itc on month end (showing gst expense)

or ignoring the itc and taking amount inclusive of gst as expense while passing purchase entry ?

5% gst without itc for hotels with room tariff < 7500

18% gst with itc for hotels with room tariff > 7500

the tax you paid on purchases can be treated as direct expn if you clasify the input tax ledger under the head direct taxes.. in that way only taxable value of purchases will be reflected in purchase ac and as you r not elligible to avail the itc it will be your direct exps related to purchases
You can add with your purchase cost as per accounting standard 2

If you intend to report all inward supplies with GST (wherein your GST number is mentioned on bills) then,

As you mentioned, take itc while passing purchase entry and reversing itc on month end (reverse ITC and add back to same expense head).

Otherwise, as Mr Pritesh suggested, add tax to the cost.

ignore itc & take amt inclusive gst as exps.
