I am not sure 100% but it seems that vanaspati ghee is a vegetable shortening with some extra flavor added to it so that its taste resembles desi ghee i.e purified butter. It is made from palm oil or coconut oil etc applying hydrogenation process . Which means that both are same apart from their flavor. You can use it in making scones and coconut cookies in stead of Crisco (vegetable shortening in USA)but can not use it in cakes and frosting because of its strong taste.

Only if you have a heart problem, and you eat a lot of it. It is, after all, a saturated fat. However, it tasted so good you can use a lot less of it than butter.
