  LHC-7 has narrowed down the mass range of the light Higgs boson. This result
is consistent with the supergravity unification framework, and the current
Higgs boson mass window implies a rather significant loop correction to the
tree value pointing to a relatively heavy scalar sparticle spectrum with
universal boundary conditions. It is shown that the largest value of the Higgs
boson mass is obtained on the Hyperbolic Branch of radiative breaking. The
implications of light Higgs boson in the broader mass range of 115 GeV to 131
GeV and a narrower range of 123 GeV to 127 GeV are explored in the context of
the discovery of supersymmetry at LHC-7 and for the observation of dark matter
in direct detection experiments.
