Thanks Bipin for the reply. 

I went through the Gromacs manual, and thought that I managed to incorporate two states (protonated and deprotonated) in my topology file. Can anyone who has done it before tell me if I  defined both A and B states correctly in my .top file.

;
;       Command line was:

;
;       Force field was read from the standard Gromacs share directory.

; Include forcefield parameters
