[Wien] Difference of band gap in band structure and DOS

Respected Sir,

I am trying to compute the band structure of TiC with 16 atoms per unit cell.  The calculated band structure shows metallic nature which is true for TiC with 2 atoms per unit cell while the total DOS (16 atoms per unit cell) shows a band gap of around 1 eV which is not consistent with the calculated band structure.

Kindly help  to remove this difference between DOS and band structure.

Regards and thanks,
