Dear Ashesh,
I hope/think this is what you are after:

In[3]:=
mat[ndiv_Integer,i_]:=
    Module[{tab},
      tab=Table[i^2,{ndiv},{ndiv}]
      ];

In[8]:=
mat[5,2]

Out[8]=
{{4,4,4,4,4},{4,4,4,4,4},{4,4,4,4,4},{4,4,4,4,4},{4,4,4,4,4}}

mat is the name of our defined function which can be reused for different values of ndiv (matrix dimensions) and i (to give a  ndiv*ndiv matrix with i^2 at each location).

Cheers,

Mark
