Dear Ganesh,
 
You can also use the ATB site, and convert the all atom .itp to CHARM36 format, or build it (charge, bond, angles, etc...) from the already present CHARMM36 atom parameters.  Check your charges if you get them from the ATB.

Use the force field CHARMM-GUI provides you. It supports everything in your
system. Our charmm36.ff port may not include everything; I extend it only when
people ask for specific parameters (as CHARMM is a huge force field, sometimes
things get missed and I rely on this kind of feedback). I'll add sphingomyelin
in the next release.
