Industries and governments of various countries, as well as groups, devote a significant portion of their earnings to research and development activities in order to develop products and also acquire patent protection for them. The short-term goal is to obtain patents, while the long-term goal is to impact countries' economic growth. Thus far, empirical evidence is ambiguous regarding the impact of research and development (R&D) expenditure. Data for the Interplays of R&D Expenditure on Patents in the Energy, IT, and Auto Sectors were gathered from the companies' published financial statements. The study period was confined to 2015–2021. Collected data was analysed and identified the percentage of research expenditure against revenue. Further data was also analysed with patents published with the F-test. The study identified that expenditure on research and development will boost the growth of the organisation and also acquire patents will lead to accomplishing organisational goals. Inversely, it also builds confidence for investors.
