Let denote the q-shifted factorial, and set Recently, Gasper [7] showed that some bibasic summation formulas derived by Carlitz [5], Al-Salam and Verma [1], and Wm. Gosper could be extended to the indefinite bibasic summation formula where p and q are independent bases and a, b, c are arbitrary parameters.
