Search for Neutral Higgs bosons that Decay to tau-pairs

A search for the Higgs bosons decaying to a pair of taus is presented using pp collision at both 7 and 8 TeV energy with the CMS experiment at LHC. This search is a major test whether the newly discovered boson couples to taus as predicted by Standard Model, at the appropriate level. Several production modes of the Higgs (GluGlu, VBF and associated with W/Z boson) are covered using final state categories. The search, with b-tagging included, is also interpreted as a search for neutral higgs bosons in the MSSM parameter space.
