When I bought a new rig for my father's office,I took the new hardrive finding that it does have issues.then,I tested in my PC.After finalising that the harddive is dead.I turned back to my harddrive.Then onwards,my hardrive acts as same as of new dead hardrive.Its ticking still when in win 10 boots up and during running applications,sudden ticking causing slowing down whole system.Help!!!

Can you just use any of the tools in the link and provide a screenshot of the SMART report. Or just provide a screenshot of the SMART report that you've pasted. It would be clearer. Upload the screenshot to an image hosting website and post the link.
Do you get some warning/caution sign next to any of those parameters?

See if you can swap cables as well. HDD's could sometimes make clicking sounds if there's not enough power supplied.
