The authors, while attempting to give a new generalization of the Laplace transform, have come across a particular function in the form of Meijer's G-function
which, when taken as a nucleus of the transformation K(x) in
defines a new transform. This transform besides serving as a generalization of the Laplace transform and most of its generalizations existing in the literature bears the characteristic property of generalizing the Hankel transform (and hence some of its generalizations) as well. In this paper the authors after having defined the transform have given an inversion theorem which is supported by means of two examples.
