Darling [3] in 1932 and Bailey [2] in 1933 gave certain theorems on products of hypergeometric series. Again in 1948 Sears [4] used the relation which expresses the series in terms of M other series of the same type to derive transformations between products of both basic and ordinary hypergeometric series. In this paper I give certain general theorems on products of bilateral hypergeometric series together with some of their interesting special cases.
