Narasimham,
See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fa%C3%A0_di_Bruno%27s_formula
or http://mathworld.wolfram.com/FaadiBrunosFormula.html and The Curious
History of Faà di Bruno's Formula
(http://www.maa.org/news/monthly217-234.pdf).
A Mathematica notebook can be downloaded from MathWorld,
http://mathworld.wolfram.com/notebooks/Calculus/FaadiBrunosFormula.nb.
Plug this formula into the general Taylor expansion!
Hope that helps!

Best regards
Ingolf Dahl
