Dear Deepak, For the input file you sent there is something wrong with the lattice vectors. LatticeConstant 2.46 Ang %block LatticeVectors 2.130 1.230 0.000 2.130 -1.230 0.000 0.000 0.000 0.000 %endblock LatticeVectors
First the third one is zero, meaning you don't have any periodicity. And second the two others seems to be smaller than the largest coordinates you are using in the input, hence you are putting atoms in the same place due to periodicity.
