Thanks Navnit,
Thats what I realised after reading few more papers and references.
http://amber.scripps.edu/doc6/html/AMBER-sh-13.html
Revisiting free energy calculations: a theoretical connection to
MM/PBSA and direct calculation of the association free energy.
Biophys J. 2004 Jan;86(1 Pt 1):67-74
The above paper is excellent as it compares both the methods of single
and three state calculations.
Cheers,
Neha
