When adding an experience to a resume, is the organization supposed to be the one my project was for, or the one I received payments from, if they are not the same one?

Context: I am a college senior, and was initially hired for a research lab, and from the Research Lab (RL), a team worked for a project at a Company (C), and I was within that team. I already put RL on my resume as I did a different there prior to C’s project, do I put C in as an organization for a separate experience? Or is C’s project considered an experience within RL and not C? Basically, would I be wrong to list C as the organization because I was paid by RL, or would putting C make more sense because the project was for and benefited C? I received an offer elsewhere and don’t know if I represented myself properly anymore, I realized this issue when having an inconclusive conversation about resumes with my friends. All advice will be appreciated!
