Sufficient conditions are given for the occurrence of various types of asymptotic behaviour in the solution of a class of n th order neutral delay differential equations. The conditions are in the form of certain inequalities amongst the constants involved in the definition of the differential equations, and specify either oscillatory behavior, or asymptotic divergence, or solutions which converge to zero.
