No. You'll be eligible for 10 years ILR in 2024.

Doesn't look like it no.

Visa was initially issued on Jan 2010 and same(Tier2 ICT LT) has been extended multiple times. So why do you think I am not eligible for ILR please?

UK BA Reference:
https://www.gov.uk/settle-in-the-uk/y/y ... nsfer-visa

Above link says,
"To qualify, you must have had at least one of these visas in the 5 years:
##Tier 2 (Intra-Company Transfer) issued under the Immigration Rules in place before 6 April 2010"

Any advice in this matter will be appreciated.

I am sorry I thought you were asking regarding 10 years route. To qualify for 5 year ILR on Tier 2 ICT you'll be eligible in 2018 October.
