A buyer purchased a laptop from Lenovo and provided GST details, but the invoice was not issued in the same month as the purchase due to delivery delays. They are concerned about claiming Input Tax Credit (ITC) if the invoice is received later. The advice given is that it is possible to claim ITC using a June invoice in August or September, with the deadline for filing being 30th November of the following year.

I purchased a laptop from Lenovo website and provided our GST details during the process. I did not get a GST invoice even after successful payment.
Lenovo insists that they will provide a invoice with purchase date (9th June) but it will be provided after delivery of the product. Delivery is expected in July or August. So invoice will be definitely not received in June.
My understanding is, to claim ITC, invoice is to be submitted in same month. Is it possible to claim ITC by submitting June invoice in August or September?
If its not possible to claim ITC this way, then what action can I take?
