Volt is the SI unit for pootential difference

1V = 1J/1C

Ampere is the SI unit for current

1A = 1C/1sec.

What is difference between KVA and MVA?

The volt ampere (V.A) is the unit of measurement of apparent power.Apparent power is the vector sum of a circuit's true power and reactive power.A kV.A (not 'KVA') is the symbol for kilovolt ampere, whereas MV.A (not'MVA') is the symbol for megavolt ampere. So the latter is one-thousand times greater than the former!
