It will be covered under Staff Amenities and so gst will not be applicable. Correct me if I am wrong

Again its a transaction b/w employer and employee. No GST
GST will only be applicable if the employee presents bill in company name with company GSTIN on it.

Hi,
The company is providing food to all its employees, and treat it as staff welfare. But did not recover it from employees. The food supplier is an unregistered dealer. Do the company need to pay RCM. If the company need to pay RCM does it can avail ITC on that??
Kindly clarify..
Kindly

In your case the transaction does not attract RCM since RCM u/s 9(4) is applicable on specified persons only. Govt has not notified any person yet.
