Hi Vivek,

As it's expressed in the warning, you are asking for more kpoints in your
input than you had in your wfk file. This can be

1) normal if you are doing perturbations and have lost symmetry: there are
more inequivalent kpoints. Abinit will generate the needed wavefunctions
correctly

2) abnormal if you think you haven't changed anything (e.g. continuing a
geometry relaxation). You probably modified your kpoint sampling in the
input file, or the wfk file is old, or you broke some symmetry. For
example by copying 2 acell parameters that aren't exactly equal 2.00000
and 2.0001: abinit is very sensitive to these for symmetry recognition.
