No, not for now. ITC can be claimed only on invoices your supplier has reported in GSTR-1 or IFF and that appear in your GSTR-2B. Payment to the supplier alone does not give credit.

Analysis
Sec 16(2)(aa) and Rule 36(4) tie your credit to what the supplier reports. If you paid ₹1,18,000 including ₹18,000 GST and the invoice is missing, the ₹18,000 waits until the supplier files GSTR-1 or GSTR-1A. Once it appears in a later month's 2B, you claim it in that month's GSTR-3B. Keep following up, because after 30 November of the next year the credit is lost.
Close
- Check whether the supplier has filed GSTR-1 for that month on Search Taxpayer.
- Write to the supplier with invoice number, date, value and your GSTIN.
- Use the portal's Communication Between Taxpayers facility to log the request.
- Hold the GST part of future payments until the invoice appears, if your terms allow.
- Claim the ITC in the month it shows in 2B.
Claiming ITC on an invoice not in 2B can trigger a DRC-01C intimation and a demand with interest.
