Dear Manu Hedge,
I don't know what you mean by "perfect", anyway it seems to be that you still have almost overlapping atoms…
Best,
Giovanni

Thanks for your kind reply. Yeah I repeated this time by double checking my crystal coordinates with both VESTA and XRYSDYNE. It is perfect. Lorenzo, you are right I think. I will double check my pseudopotentials now. Then I will run the calcuations. Here is my new input data and outfile, still SCF energies are out of order!
