Hey Thakur,

for the first case you forgot to change ntr variable to 1, therefore
your restraints are ignored. Your &cntrl section should look like
this:
&cntrl

  imin=1, maxcyc=10000,

  ntc=1, ntf=1, ntb=1, ntpr=5,

  ifqnt=1

  ntr=1

  restraint_wt=100.0,

  restraintmask=':2658 & !.H'

/

On the other hand, if you prefer NMR restraints, you must activate
them with nmropt variable in &cntrl section:

nmropt=1


Hope this helps.

Kind regards,
Szymon Żaczek
