The study was conducted on the basis of “one-tailed” t- test used by considering number
of units sold for commercial vehicle, sales of passenger vehicle and sales of export with
respect of TATA MOTORS during the study period 2016-2018. Here, the objective of the
study is proven through hypothesis testing
Based on data, conducted a hypothesis testing (with 0.05 significance level)
Sales of commercial vehicle: Hence calculated value is .478 less than table value 0.781
therefore selected hypothesis is accepted so, there is positive significant impact of GST on
sale of TATA motors.
Sales of passenger vehicle: Hence calculated value is .301 less than table value 1.186
therefore selected hypothesis is accepted so, there is positive significant impact of GST on
sale of TATA motors.
Sales of export: Hence calculated value is .420 less than table value 0.898 therefore
selected hypothesis is accepted so, there is positive significant impact of GST on sale of
TATA motors.

At the outset, the research highlighted the impact of the New tax regime recently introduced
in the name of GST which directly influence the core industries particularly Automobile
sector. There is a huge continuous demand in automobile products. High rate competency
between service providers in the Automobile products directly is being influenced the users of
the product. GST positively support the organisations in low proportion, but there is a drastic
drastic growth in Automobile industry. But, automobile products are inevitable in the life of
individuals and organisations’ routine life. Due to continuous demand of the products, the
sector has not been drastically affected. In spite of this value argument, there is a threat from
world market due to LPG policy. After a while, there would be proportion negative effect
impact will increase. Therefore, the state authorities want to take serious policy decisions to
map with the possible GST reduction in the existing rate to support the companies. Such,
radical changes in the system will boost the sector as well as performers like TATA motors to
face the tax implications in the growth of company.
