Dear Justin,

Just so we are on the same page, this means that if I don't touch the topology 
file and use the following mdp snippet, charges *are present* in the topology 
file for the ligand group and they are automatically set to zero while turning 
on vdW interactions (from 0 to 1) right ? Hence, there is no need to manually 
set charges to zero (The old style of doing the calculations), right?.


Yes. You can easily confirm this using energygrps between your transformed molecule and the rest of the system. Coul-SR should be zero.

Then the charges too, are turned off from 0 to 1? (1 state being the actual 
charges present in the topology file).


Charges are turned *on* if they are defined as off in the A-state (lambda=0) and on in the B-state (lambda=1).
