Dear Sir,
Thanks for reply.

Yes, its true that  while looking from xcrysden particularly the bond
lengths between the Fe-N and N-N  but i am very surprised why both ABINIT
and PWSCF code gives such vast Difference in calculated Pressure for the
identical geometry which is not cleared yet. Here the bond lenth Fe-N is
~1.24Ang.
Please Suggest More.
