Thanks,
I had already tried the very same thing that u had provided echo "tt" | sed 's/$/$VAR/' ended in vain. But, echo "tt" | sed "s/$/$VAR/" came up with an answer. Could you please help me with difference between ' and " in sed

This has got nothing to do with 'sed', but rather with the surrounding shell expanding [double-quotes] / or not expanding [single-quotes] the "quoted" variable.
Do 'man ksh' and search for 'Quoting'
