I have used charmm27 force field to parametrize my protein(human serum

CHARMM27 is a nucleic acid force field. The force field you're using is CHARMM22/CMAP, which is bundled (in Gromacs) in the same files.

albumin,584a.a) and swiss param to provide parameters to the ligand due to
which coordinates of ligand is changed and active site of protein is also
completely changed. Can anybody tell me that ligand coordinates should be
changed after parametrization? or any energy minimisation problem is there.

That depends on what SwissParam is doing; maybe it does energy minimization as part of its process. You don't want it to do that because it will screw up the geometry that you need. If EM can be disabled, do so. If not, find a new way to generate parameters or otherwise just use the original coordinates, not the ones from SwissParam (unless you need H added, in which case you'll have to do that yourself, but many programs can do it).

Am i doing right or not? My energy minimization mdp file is here:-
cpp        = /lib/cpp
include        = -I../top
integrator    = steep
emtol        = 100
nsteps        = 200
nstenergy    = 10
nstxtcout    = 10
xtc_grps    = Protein
energygrps    = Protein
nstlist        = 5
ns_type        = grid
rlist        = 1.4
coulombtype    = PME
rcoulomb    = 1.4
rvdw        = 1.4

These nonbonded settings are incorrect for CHARMM force fields. You need force-switching for van der Waals and the longest cutoffs should be 1.2.
