The lattice constants in Table 2 of Solid State Sciences 14 1211 (2012) [http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.solidstatesciences.2012.06.003] are:

a = 11.31, b = 3.84, c = 11.22 in Angstrom

but your struct file in StructGen shows:

a = 11.22, b = 11.31, c = 3.84 in Angstrom

Thank you Sir,
I have attached my struct file for you. For RMT I used 2.5 for Sb and 2.0 for S, but when I set automatically RMT and cont.. editing the RMT of the two different atoms become same, i.e. 1.43. Also as you have said I lower the core-separation energy to -8.0 Ry and -10.0 Ry, and I got the same leakage (0.074 for Sb and 0.021 for S).

First guess:  Is your struct file correct ???

Sb is a fairly big atom and usually has large distances to its neighbors.
What is your RMT of Sb.

If you are forced to use a small RMT for "real" reasons, lower the
core-separation energy to -8.0 Ry. Still core leakage (must be
terrible small spheres ???)

When using .lcore, your error information is completely unspecific.
Nobody can help, but I doubt very much that it has to do with
core-leakage, but the problem might be too large basis set due to
unphysically small spheres,.....
