Suresh,  your cell  definition seems off to me,  (8 atoms, i use 12 atoms
for anatase, ) where did you get the cif file? and would you mind posting
that?
here is something posted in the forum in the past by Paolo:

 &control
    calculation = 'relax'
    restart_mode='from_scratch',
    pseudo_dir = './',
    outdir='./tmp/',
 /
 &system
    ibrav= 6, celldm(1) = 7.19856, celldm(3) = 2.54638,
    nat= 12, ntyp= 2,
    ecutwfc =25.0,
    ecutrho =150.,
    occupations='smearing',degauss=0.01 ,
    nspin=1,
 /
 &electrons
    mixing_mode = 'plain'
    mixing_beta = 0.4
    conv_thr =  1.0d-9

K_POINTS {automatic}
4, 4, 2, 1, 1, 1

its an input with ibrav 6 though, not 7.
