  We study the implications of the searches based on H -> tau^+ tau^- by the
ATLAS and CMS collaborations on the parameter space of the two Higgs doublet
model (2HDM). In the 2HDM, the scalars can decay into a tau pair with a
branching ratio larger than the SM one, leading to constraints on the 2HDM
parameter space. We have also discussed the implications for the 2HDM of the
recent di-muon search by the ATLAS collaboration for a CP-odd scalar in the
mass range 4-12 GeV.
