The results on the standard model Higgs boson in tau pair decay using 25 fb–1 of pp collision data at 7 and 8 TeV center-of-mass energies collected by the CMS detector at the LHC has been presented. A direct evidence of the Higgs-lepton coupling is established with the tau pair decay mode. Searches for Higgs bosons decaying to tau leptons in scenarios beyond the standard model such as supersymmetry within the minimal extension of the model has also been reported.
