Uh.. I think you mean VRF-lite, not MPLS lite.

Normally, you need MPLS for VPNs to communicate, with MP-BGP governing the
transmission and telling MPLS what it needs.

But sometimes, you just need VPNs without MPLS and MP-BGP at all. Just
completely separate networks locally on a router. Then you would create VRFs
with RDs, but without MPLS or RTs! So you have VRF, but only locally on a
router. This is called VRF-lite.
