Input tax credit is available only when the purchase made is used in the course or furtherance of business. Where any inward supply of goods or services made, to be used partly for business and partly for personal purpose. ITC would be available only to the extent of amount of tax paid on inward supplies being used for business purpose.

The Motor vehicle should be purchased should be used or intended to be used in the course or furtherance of the business. Any ITC used in connection with purpose other than business, then it is not allowed.

Generally ITC on Motor Vehicles is specifically BLOCKED under Section 17(5) of the CGST Act 2017. But there are some exceptions to this Provision like if the Motor Vehicle is used for Transportation of Goods, then ITC is available.
But in your case it will not be correct to claim ITC since you are not exclusively using the Toyota Innova for transportation of goods ( stock in trade ). Transportation of tools from one site to another cannot be the ground to claim ITC.
Even if you claim ITC now, then what will be your stance if there is a Departmental Enquiry / Audit in the future and the department asks you "How many E-way Bills have been generated with respect to the Toyota Innova ??? "
So as per my view you cannot claim ITC on Toyota Innova since the car ( innova ) was not built for transportation of goods.
On the other hand, If you buy a Tata Ace ( in local language we call it as CHOTA HATI ) and the same is being used for transportation of goods , then without any fear you can claim ITC since it's a commercial vehicle which is specifically used for transportation of goods in smaller quantities.
