Dear Mostefa,
I run your structure file under LSDA and it turned out to be metallic
(please see below). Is this what you have too?

Dear Oleg Rubel,
I have calculated the spontaneous polarization for BiCoO3 in tetragonal
structure, and then,
I have got different results between [0 - 2] range and [-1 - +1] range.
Please I have some questions:
- What is the significance of negative values of total polarization ?
- Why the values of P_x and P_y is not ~0 ?
- Is my calculation is true ?
Please find in attached files the BiCoO3.struct, BiCoO3.berrypi (for
non-centrosymmery case) and
BiCoO3.berrypi (for centrosymmery case).
NB: the spontaneous polarization of BiCoO3 in literature is: 179 uCm/
Thanks in advance.
