I am a bit confused, is Google CalDAV API for managing domain wide calendars and events? Thus Google Calendar API is just for managing users calendar? Or are they same?

The difference is in the protocol. Both let you modify events. Calendar API lets you do more with calendars. - luc
So is CalDAV is deprecating? - Maksim Luzik
I haven't heard of anything like that. - luc

CalDAV API will become available for whitelisted developers, and will be shut down for other developers on September 16, 2013. Most developers’ use cases are handled well by Google Calendar API, which we recommend using instead. Official Google Blog

Apparently Google backtracked and reinstated CalDAV API since developers were depending on it.
