Dear Asmita,

- You do not need to convert a mol2 file into off file

- You need to add the FF atom types in the mol2 file:
   1 P1 2.915901 -1.933666 -0.325078 P 1 PC 1.3950
                                                 ^^^
                                     this is the FF atom type column.

i.e. if I follow the link:
http://q4md-forcefieldtools.org/REDDB/projects/F-60/script1.ff
set DA3.1.P type P
set DA3.1.O1P type O2
set DA3.1.O2P type O2
# etc...

- You also need to define the head & the tail of this central fragment:
i.e. if I follow the link:
http://q4md-forcefieldtools.org/REDDB/projects/F-60/script1.ff
set DA head DA.1.P
set DA tail DA.1.O3'
set DA.1 connect0 DA.1.P
set DA.1 connect1 DA.1.O3'
set DA.1 restype nucleic

I hope all that will be soon automatically generated...

regards, Francois
