Dear Naseem Hassan,

If you specify cell dimensions with celldm(*), the units are a.u., not angstroms, independently from the units (which probably should not be inserted in curly brackets) used in ATOMIC_POSITIONS. Note also that if you specify ATOMIC_POSITIONS crystal you do not need to convert the data from the CONTCAR coordinates. On the other hand, if you write ibrav=0 the cell dimensions must be given with keyword CELL_PARAMETERS, not with celldm(*).

Dear All !

Would be grateful if somebody can help in converting VASP CONTCAR file to Quantum Espresso input file. I have already tried using ibrav=0 and ibrav=6 but getting error. I am attaching down below both CONTCAR and my attempted input file. Kindly point out mistake wherever possible
