The main thing what i missed here is Authorizing my service account client ID with the GSUITE admin.

And I have been trying to generate access_token for the expired domain of mine.

After clearing all these i have to success in generating and getting user data.

This solution worked for me. I hope it works for you tooo....

Thank you community.
