As of now Form TRAN 1 is not available. You can claim input of ITC of stock as on 30/6/17 only after filing the Form TRAN 1 and the credit of ITC reflecting in you Electronic Credit Ledger.
AS of now there is no provision in Form 3B to claim the ITC as on 30/6/17. You can claim ITC only on the inward supplies made during the month of July. You do not have a choice. You have to pay the tax liability of GST for the month of July without taking ITC as on 30/6/17.
