Quick Summary
This discussion addresses whether a business can claim Input Tax Credit (ITC) for previous financial years, specifically for periods where nil returns were filed. The general rule is that ITC for FY 2017-18 and FY 2018-19 cannot be claimed now due to expired time limits. However, ITC for FY 2019-20 may still be claimable as the deadlines for filing the annual return and the September GSTR-3B have not yet passed.

No you cannot claim ITC pertaining to FY 2017-18 & FY 2018-19 now. 

The time limit for claiming ITC pertaining to a particular FY is earliest of the following:  

                   The due date of filing GST Return for September of next Financial year
                                                         OR
                         Date of filing the Annual Returns relevant for that Financial year

However you can take the pending ITC of FY 2019-20 as the due date for Annual Return is 31st December & GSTR 3B for September 2020 is yet to be filed. 

Thank you sir for your valuable information 🙏🙏
