Quick Summary
This discussion clarifies how to utilise unadjusted GST credit from previous financial years. The consensus is that GST credit lying in your electronic credit ledger can be carried forward indefinitely and used against future GST liabilities on taxable outward supplies. Even if there are no sales in a particular month, the credit remains available for adjustment in subsequent periods when sales occur.

The credit lying in your credit ledger can only be adjusted against your outward supply as the manner prescribed in rule 88A

Note : It will remain in your credit ledger unless adjusted.
The closing balance of the credit Rs. 20000 would be available in your electronic credit ledger and it can be utilised against the GST liability. There is no time limit of utilisation. Therefore it will continue to be there in the credit ledger.
You adjust the available credit on the subsequent demand
It can be utilised only against taxable output supply.
Thanks to all of you ..

You can carry forward the un-utilised ITC available in you ECL for any period of time. So you can utilise the ITC from FY 2019-20 in the subsequent months of sale.  

The amount available in Credit ledger can be claimed carried forward in the next month. So yes you can claim the ITC in next month. If there is no sale in next month then it can be carried forward for future months in which there is a sale.
