Respected Sir,
Thank you very much.
Here is the full information..
Compound - BaFe2As2
Space Group I4/mmm
a=b= 3.909 A
c= 13.2122 A
Ba= (0,0,0)
Fe= (0.5,0,0.25)
As= (0,0,0.3538)

I tried again with lesser K points as 2000 and as usual it is making kmesh
grid as 12x12x12.
Could you please suggest me where is the problem and how can I solve it?
