The Cartesian product G=G1xG2 of any two graphs G1 and G2 has been studied widely in graph theory ever since the operation has been introduced. G=G1xG2 gives insight to the structural property of G, if G1 and G2 are known. The neighbourhood polynomial plays a vital role in describing the neighbourhood characteristics of the vertices of a graph. In this study neighbourhood polynomial of the Cartesian product of certain classes of graphs are calculated and tried to characterize the nature of neighbourhood polynomial.
