We highlight the differences of the dark matter sector between the constrained minimal supersymmetric SM (CMSSM) and the next-to minimal supersymmetric SM (NMSSM) including the 126 GeV Higgs boson using GUT scale parameters. In the dark matter sector the two models are quite orthogonal: in the CMSSM the LSP is largely a bino and requires large tan from the relic density constraint in most of the parameter space. In the NMSSM the LSP has a large singlino component. We discuss the consequences for the direct dark matter searches, such as the mass spectra and the corresponding WIMP-nucleon cross section. Furthermore, prospects for discovery of XENON1T and LHC at 14 TeV are given.
