When you oncharge electricity to a commercial tenant and the electricity invoice includes the SA govt rebate (which is gst free) - do you deduct the rebate amount then calculate gst on the new total - ie the invoice has a gst credit on the rebate amount?

Yes. You claim [cost and] GST credits only on the portion paid by you. [You pass on the cost that you paid] [The GST that's on the electricity invoice is what the provider is collecting and sending to ATO]


The language is simpler on this page.


It's a bit wordy, but the ATO explanation you can read it here.
