There are a couple of ways one could do this:

1. You reorder the orbitals so that you occupy the orbitals you want using the "swap" option.

2. You can use constrained DFT (with exact exchange, using "xc HFexch", you effectively do an UHF calculation) and force the charge on the atom you want.



Thanks for you reply. It does help me out.
