If ITC not claim in GSTR-3B but declare in GST Annual return.
Same as Tax on outward liability not paid in GSTR-3B but show in GST Annual return.

Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies that Input Tax Credit (ITC) cannot be directly claimed in the GST Annual Return. While you can't claim it retrospectively in the annual filing, it may be possible to adjust unclaimed ITC against unpaid outward liability. This is considered a revenue-neutral situation for the government, though it might be subject to litigation. A Supreme Court judgment from a previous tax regime is referenced as a favourable precedent.

ITC cannot be claimed in Annual Return.

Only possible through GSTR-3B

Though you can not claim ITC in annual return. You can set off the unclaimed ITC with unpaid liability as it is a revenue neutral situation for the government. However, this is subject to litigation. There are favorable judgements of Supreme Court in the erstwhile regime.  

Mayank sir can you refer any one judgment on that situation?

Narmada Chematur Pharmaceuticals Ltd [2005 (179) E.L.T. 276 (S.C.)

Any GST period Judgment?

No sir. No judgement in the GST period.
