Dear Manu
   Thank you for your suggestion. I tried and its work. Now I am trying to
plot dos and band in qe-6.1, while running dos and pdos I got the following
error

     Program DOS v.6.1 (svn rev. 13369) starts on 10Oct2017 at 12:38: 5

     This program is part of the open-source Quantum ESPRESSO suite
     for quantum simulation of materials; please cite
         "P. Giannozzi et al., J. Phys.:Condens. Matter 21 395502 (2009);
          URL http://www.quantum-espresso.org",
     in publications or presentations arising from this work. More details
at
     http://www.quantum-espresso.org/quote

     Serial version

 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%
     Error in routine dos (1):
     reading dos namelist
 %%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%%

     stopping ...



The program stopped automatically.
How to fix this.
Herein I have attached the inputs and commands that I have given.

Regards
Sudha
