Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies whether claiming Input Tax Credit (ITC) is permissible if a nil return was filed for a particular month, even if the ITC appeared in GSTR-2A. The consensus is that claiming ITC is generally fine, provided it falls within the eligible period for the financial year. However, the reason for filing a nil return when there were inward supplies is questioned, with advice to file inward details for better compliance.

Can't understand Your query...!

Can You elaborate with some details of Your query...?
Let's an example.
I filled nill return in Feb 2020 for the month of nov2019 (late file) but I claimed itc for the same month (Nov 19). itc reflected in 2A . question is that claiming itc is against the GST law of I filled nill return ?
Yes... No problem for Your filings.
As per GST rules we can claim ITC for the FY 19-20 up-to Sep-20 GST returns (20/10/2020** the dates are now changed state wise).
So, You claim ITC as per GST act...

But,
Why You filed nil return & when You filed that nil return...?
There's no problem with regard to claim ITC. But Why did you filed Nil Return ???
Zero sale in that month.
Okay... Sale is zero.

But, What about inwards details...?

in case zero sale but, you received inwards then better way to file inwards details. It's good for future compliance...

Note : No more gst problem as Your 1st query. I asked Your details why you filed nil return.

Okay... GOOD LUCK...
Raja sir, I think they would have filed NIL GSTR1
