Dear Vipul You can do it by using, e.g., tot_charge=+1.0. Remember that you are not performing all-electron calculations in a GTO framework: a background charge density is added to your supercell in order to calculate Ewald's sums. This is going to shift the potential energy (and eigenvalues) of your charged cell wrt the neutral one. HTH Giuseppe
