since the company is engaged in manufacturing activity and purchased small truck for transportation of its own products it cannot claim ITC. refer block credit sec 17(5).
refer section 17(5) which reads as:
input tax credit shall not be available in respect of the following, namely:-

[a] motor vehicles and other conveyances except when they are used--

[i] for making the following taxable supplies, namely:-

[A] further supply of such vehicles or conveyances ; or

[B] transportation of passengers; or

[C] imparting training on driving, flying, navigating such vehicles or conveyances;

[ii] for transportation of goods;

So this section provides that you can claim ITC on Motor Vehicle when used for transportation of Goods.

Therefore you can claim it if motor vehicle is used for transportation of goods no matter whether you are engaged in transportation business or not
Yes you can claim ITC.

ITC will be available when the vehicle is used for the following.

Transportation of goods
Transportation of Goods/Passenger
Supply of other vehicles or conveyances

Hence you are using it for tranporting of goods , ITC is available to You
sorry for inconvenience...ITC can be claimed
In your case Input Tax Credit ( ITC ) can be claimed, since you are using it for Transportation of Goods.

Hence it is not Blocked u/s 17(5).
Yes, ITC can be claimed.
No you cannot claim ITC since you are not using it for making any taxable supply of transportation of goods. It is for your own goods and hence itc is not to be claimed as per sec 17(5)
