I watched a show on Natgeo which showed the formation of earth and the
solar system as they are now. It supported the following theory,  a
few billion years after the formation of solar system,when the earth
was still in the molten state, a planet half the size of earth
collides with earth.As a result of this collision, some part of that
planet merges with the earth and becomes part of it and the remaining
fragments form a planetesimal called the moon.

My doubt is - if the same planet formed the moon and merged with the
earth, why isn't there a similarity between the rocks found in moon
and those that are found in earth?

That is correct.  In addition, he might have a decimal place out of whack in
his remembrance of how many years after the Earth first formed that the
collision occurred.  I seem to recall that the interval was in millions of
years, not billions.

Well, this is good news since I thought your ignorance was
definitive. A little ray of hope then.

A few tens to hundred million years after formation of the Earth

when the earth
was still in the molten state, a planet half the size of earth

The best estimate I understand is a Mars sized proto-planet collided

collides with earth.As a result of this collision, some part of that
planet merges with the earth and becomes part of it and the remaining
fragments form a planetesimal called the moon.

There are similar rocks on Earth & the Moon.

The hypothesis has the impact a few million or tens of million years
after the formation of the Earth. And most of the impactor sails away
into space.

And in fact, the moon and the Earth have similar compositions.

Lots of older than Earth moon rocks exist. Go figure, where do you
think the bulk of those moon crater displaced rocks ended up?
