As per new rule CENVAT credit sixth amendment 2014 vide Notification No. 21/2014,C.E. (N.T.), CENVAT credit cannot be availed after 6 months period from the invoice date.

Hence, in your case, you are now not eligible to avail cenvat credit in respect of Security Bill invoice for the month of April 2014. However, you can surely avail cenvat credit on all remaining invoices.
