    I want to learn on how can I create the shape of a tag entirely in CSS…
    Like you know, a triangle shape on the left and rectangular other sides…

    Can anyone help

    This might have what you’re looking for — just remember that browser support will vary!

    Check out the octagon on that page. You should be able to alter that and rotate as needed.
