Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies the deadline for claiming Goods and Services Tax (GST) input tax credit (ITC). According to Section 16(4) of the CGST Act 2017, ITC must be claimed by the due date of the return for September of the following financial year, or the annual return, whichever is earlier. Therefore, ITC for June 2018 should have been claimed by 20th October 2019, and filing the GSTR-3B for June 2018 in November 2019, even with a late fee, means the credit cannot be claimed.

As per section  16(4)  of the CGST act  2017  last  date  for Claiming  Input  Tax Credit   is  return  for  the  month  of  September  or  Annual  return  whichever  is earlier . So in your case  last date to claim Input  Tax credit for the Month of June 2018  was 20  OCT  2019  ( GSTR3B for month  of Spt 2019) .

Sir,
But we are filing the june 2018 Gstr 3b filed in November 2019 with late fee.
