Dear Suman,

It is not SIESTA who decide if there are boundary conditions or not. It is
your specific problem: a periodic system or not.

I think that if your system IS a nanodisk, then, there aren't boundary
conditions so your system can be considered as a single "molecule" and
there aren't bands. To use SIESTA, you have to setup your input using "fake
boundary conditions", I mean, you put your nanodisk in a box, big enough to
avoid inter-disk interactions.
