Here also the time is greater than the .trr file.

Cant understand how to overcome it.

There's no reason any of this has to match.

The checkpoint file is written according to the interval supplied with mdrun -cpt, default 15 minutes. The .trr file is written every so many steps per the .mdp flags. So their contents will generally not match at any point before the end of a run. They will match if it terminates normally. Simlarly the filesystem timestamp that gets recorded can vary with a whole pile of system variables, and need not match either. This is all fine. Under GROMACS 4.x, the purpose of the .cpt is to facilitate timely restarts without having to save excessive amounts of information in the trajectory file. Instead you can just focus on storing the data in your trajectory files that you need for your analysis. The website pages talk more about this.
