Dear all,
I have been reading about PRODRG that takes a PDB file as an input and produces 
topologies compatible with GROMACS as an output. Can this program be then 
considered as a solution to the problem of missing residues in GROMACS like LIG?

PRODRG produces topologies for the Gromos96 43a1 parameter set (and an older version produces topologies for the outdated Gromos87), and the quality of the topologies is generally very low. The resulting topologies require significant modification.

N.B:  I am using the OPLSAA force field .I also have the files in MDL MOL2 
version which do not contain the LIG residue appearing in the PDB file. So 
maybe using PRODRG on the MOL2 might solve the problem?

I don't understand this. PRODRG will be of no use here since you are using OPLS-AA, and if there is no ligand, then why do you need some external program to build a topology?
