I want to create a new task in salesforce at the application level based on an event in my online application.
Can you guide me how this can be achieved ?

Hi Sandeep
You will probably want to use the Salesforce APIs to send data from the external website into Salesforce once the form is completed. Since you are already using REST for outbound calls from Salesforce you could also use it for inbound calls.
See Create a Record (https://developer.salesforce.com/docs/atlas.en-us.api_rest.meta/api_rest/dome_sobject_create.htm) in the REST API developer guide.
The alternative is that you have Salesforce periodically poll the external system for the records.
