What are the purpose of using gradient tool? One known fact is to give a aesthetic look to a logo. Is there any other reasons?

 

See the following logo it looks like one end taking a backward root to other end. That means it looks like a 3D logo.

There are many different use cases for Illustrator. Creating logos is just one of them. Whether or not a logo could or should contain a gradient is the subject of heated discussions among designers.

Not sure there is a simple answer to your query - The gradient tool allows designers to flow from one color to another (or several) smoothly. It's a design choice and can be used in various means like the example you are showing.

I have watched several logo design in the YouTube. In some logos gradiant color change give 3D look. I do not know whether it is the issue with my looking a logo or not.

There is no complaint. Only thing is finding out the intention.
