They both have master detail relationship
#Both of them have Two record types each
> contact has record type "Con1" and "con2"
> cust__c has record type "Cus1" and "Cus2"
#Other info
> the detail page layout is present on the parent object
#Requirement
> I want to make sure that if a new "cust__c" is created on contact with record type "Con1" then mandatorily it should be associated to "Cus1".
> Similaryly, "Con2" should be associated to "Cus2",
> Both of the association should be mandatory for a user
#Solution required

A custom button is not your solution - use Publisher Actions. You can set default field values with a Publisher Action without hacking things together or doing unsupported things like URL hacks.
